How many drone batteries do you guys have?

I’ve got three for my Mini 4 Pro along with a few fast portable chargers. After my recent holiday, I’m considering getting a few more… maybe end up with 4-6 batteries total. Anyone else loaded up on batteries?

I run a drone business with Mavic 3s and keep 8 batteries on hand. That’s usually enough for a full day of work, plus I can charge in my car with a cigarette adapter. I could probably manage with 6, but having 8 means I don’t have to worry about charging as much.

@Teysha
If you don’t mind me asking, how much do you make with your business?

When I first got my Mini 2, I ordered some extra props for $15. To my surprise, the package included 2 OEM batteries. Turns out, they changed the listing after my order, and I got lucky with the extra batteries at no extra cost. So now I have 5 batteries and a charger that handles them all at once.

Having 6 batteries means you might want a second remote. Also, why do you have so many fast chargers? Are you not using the DJI charging hub? I have 3 batteries for my Air 3, and that’s usually enough unless I’m doing FPV.

@Drew
That was a typo; I meant fast power banks. I use those to charge my remote and the charging hub.

@Drew
Pretty sure the Mini 4 Pro only comes with a hub that can charge 3 batteries. Unless there’s a separate one from the fly more kit?

Yeah, it only charges 3, but with 6 batteries, by the time I’m on my last one, the others are already recharging. Maybe I’ll just get a second hub.

@Leith
Those hubs are slow since they charge one at a time. It’s better to have multiple chargers so you can charge 3 batteries together.

I haven’t used fast chargers before. What kind are you talking about?

@Leith
There are many fast chargers out there, not just DJI. Some charge multiple batteries at once, which is way faster.

@Leith
DJI’s fastest chargers are their generator ones, but other brands sell fast chargers on Amazon.

I have 3 batteries, a charging hub, and a power bank that can recharge the hub about 1.6 times. It’s almost like having 8 batteries, and it all fits in my backpack!

I just have the original battery that came with my Mini 3.

I have 3 batteries, and that’s more than enough for me. I usually don’t go through all of them since not every spot I fly at is worth filming.

Using Mini 2 here. Got 4 batteries total—three on charge and one in the drone.

I’ve got 10 TB65s :joy:

How many can you charge at once?

8 in the hub, but only 2 charge at a time. I keep 2 more on the drone.

Just like the TB30 then.
