Dont freak out. Its nt that big of a deal. I kept the Lipo on my mini-t sitting at full charge for like 6 months cuz I broke it and never got around to fiing it. When I finally did fix it, the lipo still had a 95% percent charge and there is no difference that I can tell. The really bad thing for lipos is storing them fully charged and then exposing them to heat like in a parked car in the summer. About the worst thing you can do is charge up your packs and then leave them somewhere hot. At normal room temps you probably will not have an issue, but considering what theses packs cost, I just like to play it safe. Know what I mean.
