Well, I finally left a battery alone long enough for the auto discharge to kick in.  It sat for 16 days after a 100% charge.  The battery charge status was at 3 lights.
It was down to around 11.9 volts and took about 1600mAh to fill it back up.

Hello Jamie

Saw your thread and thought I would share this...

Both my batteries have firmware 2.0.0.0 loader 1.5.0.0 and hardware ID 000002207. There is no firmware update for this battery. How do I get v2.6.0.0 loaded onto it? I am using Phantom Tool 3.8.

I have emailed them twice since beginning of December. I got the same reply both times.  This last email was beginning of March.

Hello Larry,

Sorry for the waiting .

Yes,the upgrade channel have been closed temporary as we need to confirm it is absolutely compatible with the new firmwares. For safety upgrade it have to take more times .

If this betteries can be used normally ,then it will be OK if you use and stores the battery properly.

Sorry for the inconvience and your understanding will be much appreciated .

Best wishes.

Still doesn't work the update from 2.0.0.0 to 2.6.0.0? Because me too have the 2.0.0.0 fw on the batteries and would like to update

I think this may be due to the "other" batteries that are on the market, DJI update bricked them (shouldn't have been trying to update non DJI products), In the meantime having to discharge them gives me a great excuse to get out of the house and go flying
