Default Storage voltage for 2s Lipo

What's the storage voltage for a 2s Lipo? My iCharger has a storage function & it stops at 7.20

Is that correct?

Thanks!

Mine is 3.8-3.85 per cell. So 7.6 together.

Mine also is 7.6. I'd there a setting you can change to up it to 7.6?

7.2v is okay too. Just make sure you cycle them once in a while.

Anywhere between 3.78-3.85v/cell is considered a 'proper' storage voltage. 7.2 I would consider too low, I wouldn't even run any of my packs that low.

Which iCharger? I believe most, if not all, have a default storage charge setting of 3.85v/cell.

It's the 306b. Just checked and it stores the battery at 7.76, total cell count.

Does the IR change from a stored battery to when the battery is charged? At storage the IR is 6. When fully charged it's 3.

The IR of my battery is 8. Is that good for a 2s?

Just getting into the iCharger game so trying to learn what I can.

Thanks all

ir will vary depends on what unit you check it with 8 mohms is not all that bad.. storage voltage is from 7.65v to 7.85.. i stick with 7.65 i have found better battery life with this i have some 8 year old lipos still run like the day after i got them.. i still break in charge and discharge all my Lixx batteries.. start with a 2 amp discharge go to 30 or more ..jump discharge up 5 amps each cycle.
