Goggles storage %

[RcHawks]

Just checking what other’s do about battery storage % if say you don’t plan on using the googles 3 (or N3) for a period of time say 1 or 2 months for the health of the battery. Charge to 100# and let it self discharge or maybe 90% what’s your routine? I do realize they’re not the same animal as the battery you use in a drone.

Thanks for the reminder RcHawks.

I have the N3 goggles along with the MC and haven't used it in over a year.
They are just sitting on a shelf.

The MC had no indication of power, but started charging up normally when plugged up.

EDIT: Um, it doesn't seem to be charging now.


The N3 goggles fired up and showed 100 % battery.

I'll top the goggles off as well just to be sure.

Good to know about the headset battery being OK after sitting for a long while. Keeping so many batteries healtly takes some work and record keeping. That’s what made me think of it. Every battery with a #.
Plus I recieved 2 more neo 2 batteries that haven’t charged yet. So two more to the list, . Much better than not enough batteries.

Ideally should be 60-70% like any other.

Yep, I store my power batteries at 60%. Thing is this is the listing for the question about the Goggles and it seems like they are talking about the power batteries here as well and not just the goggle battery.
Charging Recommendations for DJI Goggles 3


General Charging Guidelines

• Full Charge Before Use: It is recommended to charge the DJI Goggles 3 to 100% before the first use and before every flight.
• Battery Maintenance: If you do not plan to use the goggles for an extended period, it is still advisable to charge them fully. This helps maintain battery health.

Long-Term Storage Tips

• Storage Charge Level: For long-term storage (like a month or more), it is best to keep the battery charged between 40% and 60%. This range helps prevent battery degradation.
• Periodic Charging: If stored for a long time, check the battery level every few weeks and recharge if it drops below 40%.

Conclusion


While charging to 100% is ideal before use, for long-term storage, aim for a charge level between 40% and 60% to ensure the battery remains healthy.

I stopped flying approx 2 months ago. Charged all batteries to 100%. The G3 is at 96%, the GN3 is at 95%. They both work fine. I don´t worry about the batteries, never had any problems regarding winter layoff. The storage voltage is important for "regular" LiPo FPV batteries as they have protection in them.

That’s what I thought. Thanks!
