Powering down between flights?

[Relisys190]

I am running a 308 DUO and two 1200 HP power supplies for 25ish volts.

I know the power supplies are designed to be on constantly in their normal environment.

My question to you guys is : Do you power down your charging system when all your packs are charged or do you just leave everything running for the few hours at the field? I'm normally at the flight club for 5-6 hours when I go and I currently power down my stuff between charge cycles.

safe to just leave on for hours at a time with no load?

Thanks

I "personally" power down my generator to conserve fuel and save wear and tear on my PS's and iCharger 406... This is just my preference....

I agree with the powering down to save fuel, but the wear & tear on the PS / iCharger is rubbish. The PS & iCharger get more stressed on power up.

So safe to say leaving the power-supplies and Charger on during the duration of time spent at the field should be no issue?

Sounds good. Thank you.
