BATTERY
Your QUEST is designed to perform well in a wide range of ambient temperatures, with 62° to 72° F (16°
to 22° C) as the ideal comfort zone. It’s especially important to avoid exposing your device to ambient
temperatures higher than 95° F (35° C), which can permanently damage battery capacity. That is, your
battery won’t power your device as long on a given charge. Charging the device in high ambient
temperatures can damage it further. Even storing a battery in a hot environment can damage it
irreversibly. When using your device in a very cold environment, you may notice a decrease in battery
life, but this condition is temporary. Once the battery’s temperature returns to its normal operating
range, its performance will return to normal as well.
If you want to store your QUEST long term, two key factors will affect the overall health of your battery:
the environmental temperature and the percentage of charge on the battery when it’s powered down for
storage. Therefore, we recommend the following:
•
Do not fully charge or fully discharge your Quest’s battery — charge it to around 50%. If you store
a device when its battery is fully discharged, the battery could fall into a deep discharge state,
which renders it incapable of holding a charge. Conversely, if you store it fully charged for an
extended period of time, the battery may lose some capacity, leading to shorter battery life.
•
Power down the device to avoid additional battery use.
•
Place your device in a cool, moisture-free environment that’s less than 90° F (32° C).
•
If you plan to store your QUEST for longer than six months, charge it to 50% every six months.
Depending on how long you store your device, it may be in a low-battery state when you remove it from
long-term storage. After it’s removed from storage, it may require 20 minutes of charging with the
original adapter before you can use it.
