  • lipo question again

    would it do any damage to my lipos leaving them fully charged for a few days whilst waiting for a break in the weather.

      Leaving lipos either fully charged or mostly discharged has the same ill-effect, it expedites corosion of the anode and/or cathode. That's where the increase in
      internal resistance comes from, which manifests as heat and eventually puffing during the discharge cycle.the effect is also cumulative, so for each day you leave the lipo at full charge the more it degrades.

        It does depend on temperature as well and so you can keep them for longer at lower temperatures. Any references to degradation would be interesting.
