There should absolutely be a Storage Mode setting there with your charger. If you have not been doing this, a bad idea. You are breaking the Cardinal Rule with Lipos. Double check to makes sure you have Storage mode. Just shutting off at 3.8 volts may seem like a workaround, just ALL the cells will not be balanced well enough when one reaches 3.8v/cell IMHO.Ahh I see, that makes sense thanks. Just need to figure out if my overlander charger has a storage voltage setting, or can I just turn it off at 3.8?
If your charger does not have a Storage mode, Toss it. Storage mode is mandatory for modern chargers. A mandatory feature that all have. Not having Storage Mode is a sign that your charger is subpar, with old outdated technology overall.
But I am not familiar with your Overlander Charger whatsoever. Look over your charger well. Manual and all.
