System Run Time as Affected by Battery Storage
The system run times shown in Figure 1 are based on a new and fully charged battery. The remaining run time decreases as
the battery charge status decreases. Battery charge status decreases during use and during storage. During storage (anytime
not is use or being charged) batteries will naturally lose a percentage of their charge (remaining capacity), known as self-
discharge. The 3M™ Versaflo™ battery packs have a self-discharge rate between approximately 2.5% and 4% per month
depending on the size of the battery pack. Batteries stored at higher temperatures have a higher self-discharge rate than
batteries stored at lower temperatures. Optimal storage temperature is 59 °F (15 °C).
