Charging Hub and High Capacity P4P Batteries

[vcinfio]

Recently purchased the Phantom 4 Series DJI charging hub to use with my P4P High Capacity batteries.

Can someone confirm if this charging hub is compatible with the high capacity batteries?

Yes, it's compatible.

Kinda late to ask that isn't it? Fortunately you're OK. Are you haven't trouble with it charging?

It only charges my batteries to 3 bars. Not sure if user error or compatibility.

Check that the switch on the side is set to "Charging" and not "Storage".

Yep. I have been distracted as of late and really was not even aware of that. What is the formula for when to choose Storage"? Thanks.

If you're not planning on flying for a while, you can use the storage mode to charge batteries up to 50%. If the batteries are above 50%, that mode will discharge them down to 50%. I don't recommend discharging them with the hub though since it takes a long time. It would be better to let the batteries auto discharge down to 65% on their own.

Thanks everyone. I tried discharging a battery at 100% and the level didn't move. Better off just letting it auto discharge.
Main benefit of having the charging hub is to charge (3) batteries
