[QUOTE="s2 Web Parrot, post: 25962, member: 5008"] Gee, and your opinion is so "fact" based !! Please provide us a link to some DJI publication that supports your opinion..... as has msinger :-) While we're at it, I'm a Mavic customer who recently purchased a Spark. I scoured theDJI documentation and video tutorials, including matters of intelligent battery care and feeding. It appears that the Spark batteries have less intelligence than those of the Mavic. With the Mavic I'm able to set the number of days before the batteries start their discharge cycle. When I look at the battery settings via Go 4, there is no such option for the Spark. Similarly I was looking for some reference that, by pressing the on/off battery button I would be delaying the discharge cycle. Has anyone read anything that clarifies this? One last matter regarding the Battery Safety Guidelines under "Battery Storage." There seems to be a contradiction between item 2. and 3. " 1. DO NOT store the battery for an extended period after fully discharging it. Doing so may over-charge the battery and cause irreparable battery cell damage." ....while: " 2. "The battery will enter hibernation mode if depleted and stored for a long period." I'm looking for some more consistent information. While this document is dated 2017, there have been a few battery firmware updates that may have changed this. [/QUOTE]
