I've got a Bantam BC6 charger that has a storage mode. But basically what I want to know is if I get a Lipo or two and have them sat after setting to storage mode will this do the batts any harm? How long can they be stored in like this?
I keep mine fully charged, and use every two weeks or so all depending if I can be bothered. Still I understand a lot of guys charge it three quarters full and leave it like that until they next need it. Do not store in a hot place, always keep them in a cool area away from heat. Mine stay in the cupboard.
