Discharging lipos

As long as you store them in a good fireproof container you should be good to go.

3v per cell, not 3.7v Jerry.....

Yea I know James. That is what I meant. I am just saying why discharge Lipo's at all for storage? Especially if you do not know for sure when you might use them again. Just charge them up, and lock them away.
