[Visions Electronics] DJI Mini 3 Pro Intelligent Flight Battery - $78

Deal Link:: https://www.visions.ca/product-detail/6 ... 0000498.01
Price:: 78
Savings:: $12
Expiry:: December 24, 2022
Retailer:: Visions Electronics

Spare battery for the DJI Mini 3 Pro drone for $78

Not a spectacular deal, but I don't believe these usually go on sale, and a lot of RFD'ers probably picked up one of these drones recently with that London Drugs sale.

Edit: Seems like they're OOS online now.
Edit2: Available online with free shipping again.
Edit3: Promo extended to Dec 24

It was a Cyber Monday sale where they were sold as open box/display model, but in reality they were brand-new in original shrink wrap.

$490 for the DJI Mini 3 Pro with regular controller (plus $10 bonus gift card)
$625 for the DJI Mini 3 Pro with smart controller (plus $10 bonus gift card)

I bought the Mini 3 Pro for that sale. But returned that in favour of mini 2 flymore combo @ 330 - 10 GC.

Should have kept the Mini 3 Pro. It's superior in every way to the Mini 2.

Absolutely. However, the cost with smart controller was 625. On the other hand flymore combo comes with extra batteries and wings. Which I found as more necessary. Different people, different priorities.

The smart controller on its own is $400, but most importantly Mini 3 Pro is a current model vs mini 2 which is dead now as it has been replaced by the mini 3 which uses the same batteries as the mini 3 pro.

Lastly the mini 3 series flies much better as they have stronger motors.

Has it been replaced? I have read reports that Dji will keep making them for now.

Not literally dead, but outdated. It's like how Samsung still manufactures new units of their old phones.

I bought a Galaxy S20 FE a couple months back and it was manufactured in late April this year.

Thanks again, OP. I was able to order one for $78 for in-store pick up + $5 promo card, then used the promo card to buy a second one. This actually allows you put together a fly more package for less money and use the savings for a better case.

Any idea if we're allowed to redeem more than one bonus card at once? I'm thinking two online purchases of a battery, then redeem the bonus cards for spare props.

Sorry, it didn't come up, but I don't think it should be an issue. It's was effectively treated as a gift card and deducted from the balance after taxes. These are the only terms I found on the card: https://www.visions.ca/info/pickupbonus
