After a demanding flight, a battery is hot and the next shot is urgent. What should guide the decision to recharge or reuse it?

Answer

Follow the manufacturer's temperature and charging limits. Let the battery cool if required, inspect it, and use another suitable pack rather than forcing a hot battery back into service.

Explanation

Heat is part of battery condition. Rapid reuse or charging outside the stated temperature range can reduce performance and increase the chance of damage.
