Hey! I'm a hobbyist/enthusiast cinematographer and I just picked up a secondhand Ronin M from a local guy. He provided all of the original accessories and the batteries, but he hadn't used the Gimbal aside from a calibration test and the batteries sat for 16 months unused. They only white flash the left-most LED and then turn off, refusing to charge or power the gimbal at all. I assume they overdischarged and sat long enough to deteriorate the cells past what the smart battery considers safe. I picked up a new battery today, and behold the Gimbal works flawlessly (but RIP $100). What would be the proper way to store/use the batteries so that I don't have dead batteries down the line? (I am an infrequent filmer, I may use the Gimbal once or twice per month on average.) Thanks!
