Hey guys, P2V+ owner here with 3 currently used battery and one unopened. My question is regarding the method you use to "manage" the life of your batteries.
I'm trying to cycle them in an order so I use them at the same rate, that's pretty basic stuff there. What I am most concerned about is the fact that we should keep them at 50%. I think I might be a little too psycho about that. I keep them at 50% all the time but the problem is when I need to go for a quick flight after work, well you guess; i only get half my flight time. So now I am at a point where I'm watching weather in advance and checking whether I should charge one or two battery the day before so I am ready for the next day.
I'm I too paranoid with this 50% thing or am I doing the right thing? Any other tips about how you manage your batteries? Sometimes when I want a quick flight and I didn't think about fully charging my battery I'm wondering if it does any harm to it to fly it when it's only 50% charged. I mean, half charging a battery may not be that good right?
Thanks
