    lipo battery life

    I don't have a place to run boats due to loosing our pond but hopefully our club can find another place to run now I have $600 dollars worth of batteries just sitting in storage charge. My question is as long as I cycle them once a month how long will they last?

    Cycling them once a month they should be fine just check on them every now and then.

      I have a few Li-Po's that are over 3 years old now.
      I never run them lower than 20%, I keep them in a storage charge and cycle them once or twice over the winter.

      What could possibly go wrong?

        just make sure to store them at a low temp, not freezing but somewhere in the 40 *f range should keep them nice and fresh until you are ready to use them again.
