Transporting the FlEXVOlT
TM
Battery
The D
e
WALT FLEXVOLT TM battery has two modes: Use
and Transport .
Use Mode: When the FLEXVOLT TM battery stands alone or is in
a D
e
WALT 18V(20V Max) product, it will operate as an 18V(20V
Max) battery. When the FLEXVOLT TM battery is in a 54V(60V Max)
or a 108V(120V Max) (two 54V(60V Max) batteries) product, it
will operate as a 54V(60V Max) battery.
Transport Mode: When the cap is attached to the FLEXVOLT
TM
battery, the battery is in Transport mode. Keep the cap
for shipping.
When in Transport mode, strings
of cells are electrically
disconnected within the pack
resulting in 3 batteries with a
lower Watt hour (Wh) rating as compared to 1 battery with a
higher Watt hour rating. This increased quantity of 3 batteries
with the lower Watt hour rating can exempt the pack from
certain shipping regulations that are imposed upon the higher
Watt hour batteries.
For example, the Transport
Wh rating might indicate
3 x 36 Wh, meaning
3 batteries of 36 Wh each.
The Use Wh rating might
indicate 108 Wh (1 battery implied).
Storage Recommendations
1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away
from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold. For optimum
battery performance and life, store battery packs at room
temperature when not in use.
2. For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully charged
battery pack in a cool, dry place out of the charger for
optimal results.
nOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely
depleted of charge. The battery pack will need to be recharged
before use.
