When i got my TB50 batteries shipped in January I set them via DJI GO 4 to a 2 day self discharge and have seen them do this. I recently was "forced" to update the firmware and since since then they no longer do this...

Hello Dr Jon

Do you mean there's no more choice to select the self discharge time or do they just not respond anymore?

What firmware up date are you talking about?  With the Go 4 version I'm using the battery discharge start time is still selectable and it works.

the battery themselves. I selected 2 days and its now over 5 days and no change in battery level on any of my sets. Before they would get slightly warm but nothing now...
The firmware i refer to is the one sent out by DJI about 2 weeks ago.

All my batteries have current FW installed and the discharge time set to 1 day.  It works fine. I measure the heat generated during discharge with a infared thermo and in a 70 degree (F) room the heat measured at the vents on the battery is approx 80 degrees F.  So not sure why your's arn't discharging now.

Did you check to see if 2 days is still selected? You have to select that on each battery.

I followed your advice inserted batts, set to 10 days. powered down. removed batts for 10 minutes, restarted and selected 2 days then power down. All looks good. As mentioned i think it got corrupted when the new batt firmware was loaded.
