My old charger broke (that is another story) and so after reading up I have ordered myself a new D4. I just need one question clarified...

It seems the D4 does not have a storage mode, but it does have a LiFe mode. Can I charge my Lipos under that mode when I want to put them in storage so they will be at 3.7 volts per cell?

As always, thanks for the input!

Ya, I'd say that will work. It won't discharge the cell to 3.7v but if your Li-Ion battery is below 3.7v then it should charge up to that level when in that mode.

You might try the "LanthianRC 18650 Battery Holder Case Box for 6S Battery" from Banggood for $7.55 and $2.79 shipping, #1602943
It looks as though it will work with a RC multimode charger that has storage function. It is set up for 6 batteries, but should work with any combination from 1 to 6.
