❓ How should I store and maintain my drone batteries for maximum lifespan?

Proper drone battery maintenance is crucial for safety and longevity:

• Store at 40-60% charge (never fully charged or depleted)
• Keep in a cool, dry place (15-25°C/59-77°F)
• Check cells for damage or swelling regularly
• Use a LiPo-safe bag for storage and transport

The FAA guidelines recommend storing drone batteries in fire-resistant containers. Check your batteries every 2-3 months and recharge to storage level if needed. As per FAA safety guidelines, never use damaged or swollen batteries. Most LiPo batteries last 150-250 charge cycles when properly maintained.
