Why does the DJI Mavic Mini have 2 types of batteries?

Dji Mavic Mini is DJI’s lightest and smallest foldable drone. Many users may have noticed that there are 2 types of batteries on the official website – 2400mAh and 1100mAh. What is the difference? What batteries are included in the Fly More Combo? If 2400mAh gives up to 30 minutes of flight time, how much does 1100mAh give?

The 1100mAh batteries are made specifically for Japan, as Japanese standards allow drones weighing less than 199g. DJI decided to reduce the weight at the expense of the battery in order to meet the standard.

2400mAh batteries are sold in China and other countries and regions.

Are Mavic Mini batteries universal?

How long can you fly with different types of batteries?

According to official data, Mavic Mini can fly up to 30 minutes at 14km/h in calm weather. Below are the detailed characteristics of both types of batteries.
