I've left Maxamps, Turnigy, Zippy, ParkZone, and PolyQuest lipos fully charged for weeks and even months at a time without damaging them but I just took an E-Flite battery back to my LHS because it puffed (presumably from being left fully charged for too long). I agree that it is much more convenient to charge them when you're done bashing for the day and while you sleep and have fresh packs in the morning rather than sit around for 2 hours waiting for the stupid things to charge.

All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.
