I have the discharge rate set to 1A to be safe and rarely use it.
Storage wise batteries are usually somewhere around 7.7/ 7.8V or 65/70% capacity. As this is usually what they finish at after a race anyway there is usually very little I need to do. I do however only charge to 95% capacity as see no point of stressing the batteries to achieve the extra 5% especially with the punch and capacity of lipo's.
If you no longer have them at full capacity and somewhere between 60-80% they should be ok to store.
