So I need some info from the more experienced pilots here.

I flew 12 4s packs today. I probably won't fly more than 2 or 3 this week or maybe not at all. If the weather is good this weekend I might get a dozen or more flights. If the weather is crap(it's definitely winter here in the northeast now) it might be two or three weeks before I use them. 

Should I charge most of them into "storage" and then charge them Friday night if I'm going to fly?

Charge them up fully?

What's the best procedure?

I've spent some $ on batteries and would like to maintain them and not waste charges or ruin them by treating them carelessly. I have an Imax B6AC v2 and the storage setting brings them to 15.28V or about 3.8 per cell. It's not a big deal to put them in "storage mode" but I'm not sure if it's better to charge them up fully after I fly when it might be a week before I use them or it could be weeks.

What's the best way to handle this so they last the longest?

Thanks
