Advice on cycling Lipos

After a long time thinking about it I've been out and got a proper charger - Fusion LX60B Pro, it will charge and discharge 1S to 6S which is OK for my purposes.
What I need help with is that occasionally I charge a couple of packs up and don't get chance to use them, I know it's not good to leave them fully charged so what's the best thing to do?
Thanks in advance

does it not have a storage function?

The recommended thing to do is discharge to 3.85v per cell if you don't need them for more than 1-2 weeks. I have some Rhino batteries that are 3 years old now and I leave them fully charged for months...

No, but if you set it to discharge on a 3S 2200 the preset is 11.1V which seems about right to me. It started at 12.55 volts and discharges at max 5 Watts (about 0.4amps).
Just want to be sure I'm not doing anything stupid!!!
Thanks

Bah! No storage function and you call it a 'proper' charger?!

Believe me it is 'proper' compared to the little thingy that came with my sh1te evo180se, it charged 2S & 3S ok but a bit like the cr4p things you get with the msr's - no indication of voltages etc etc; ok it might not be the mutts nuts but it's a country mile better than what I had!!!
Anyway, you still flying that Supercub? I'm flying planks as much as helis now - just started night flying with a Night Vapor (when there's no wind) really good fun!!!
