I have been just letting them sit for the week, fully charged, and have not been putting them in storage mode for the week. Now, I would assume this wouldn't hurt anything, but I just wanted to check with you guys before I continue to do it. Will doing this potentially decrease the life of my battery or cause any harm to it? Thanks!

Update:
Just did the hex conversion on my FT last night... using all AE parts, with the exception of JConcept adapters in the rear. Lovin' it!
It's going to be a Huge matter of opinion.

I use mine to much to leave in storage mode.

Some discharge them. some don't.
I use my cars to discharge mine and just don't charge them back up when I am not going to use them. Mine only sit charged for about a day before they get used again.

oh and Lake.
I took 1st, 1st and 1st last night at the races
