My new to me I2 scared me a bit today

[Slozukimc]

Charged up the batteries and went out to get some pics. Everything seemed fine until I checked the batteries and they were showing yellow and sometimes red bars instead of green after takeoff. I had time to check two pairs and both were the same. I ran them down to 2% and recharged and the one pair I have ready seems to be ok so far. I’ll find out more tomorrow when I can fly again. Here’s to hoping they can be saved. I can’t afford new batteries after just buying the drone.

The "refresh" regimen instructs the user to run batteries down to 0% (not 0 volts) and then fully recharge. In extreme cases, I have done this twice in a row. It doesn't always work, but sometimes it does.

I was scared to go that far not knowing. I will run them all down to zero if I need to do it again.

Thank you.

How many cycles on the batteries?

39 on that pair if I recall correctly.
