I have one of the original DJI Mavic Minis.  I want to know if the battery self discharges down to 60% if left sitting for a few days like my Mavic Pro 2 and Mavic Air 2 do.

Thanks

Hi, TimothyD. Thank you for reaching out. The Mavic Mini battery is not designed with an auto-discharging setting. If the battery is idle for 10 days, please discharge the battery to 40% ~ 65% (with 2-3 battery level LEDs lighted on) for storage.

Discharging method:
1) Insert the battery into the charging hub. Use the power bank function to charge an external device to deplete the battery level.
2) Insert the battery into an aircraft and power the aircraft on to deplete the battery level.

Hope this helps.

2) Insert the battery into an aircraft and power the aircraft on to deplete the battery level.

Use caution doing that with a Mini.  The mini is passively cooled and if powered on just sitting there, the CPU can overheat due to no airflow.  If you really need to use this method, put a fan in front of the Mini blowing some air at the front of the drone.
