Has anyone left batteries on a charging hub on storage mode for a month only to find them flat with just 1 flashing bar intermittently coming on as it tries to charge. Is there a fix. I have 3 useless batteries

If it doesn't work, will he get his 99 cents refunded?

When you click on the 99p link it takes you to the YouTube sight and plays the preview again but can’t see a way to pay ?

Generally, Lipos can be forced to charge by turning them on while they're on the charger.  But it doesn't always work.  

I seem to remember a thread on this very thing over the past 4-5 days or so.  You might search.

I have had this issue and all it required to get things going was to plug the battery into the charger and turn on the battery by way of the power button.  Press-release/ press-hold for a couple of seconds.  I would only try charging one at a time though, That way, if one of the batteries is somehow bad, it will have no effect on charging the others.

Hello Ridarm, sorry to hear this. Is there any luck to keep the battery charging for a certain time with the original charger? If not, please contact the support and send it in: http://www.dji.com/support

Never leave a battery connected to a hub or charger when not charging. You can never g'tee there is no residual discharge.

It is known that battetys go into 'hibernation mode' .... where they have reached low level and shut off.

Manual says to switch on .... leave for 5mins and then plug in to charger. Leave on charger till it 'wakes up' .... it can take quite a long time ....

The better way to storage is to charge fully - have auto discharge set to 2-3 days .... check battery level each week and if very low - charge up again and restart cycle.
Try avoid dropping into hibernation mode.
