Battery Storage
When storing your batteries for a long period of time:
⚫
Charge your batteries every 30 days to avoid capacity loss. Batteries will self-discharge slowly when left unused for a
long period of time; if the battery cells are allowed to reach a critically low voltage, their lifespan and capacity will be
permanently reduced.
⚫
Always disconnect your charger from the wall outlet and battery before storing the battery.
⚫
Avoid storing your batteries in extreme temperatures, whether hot or cold.
⚫
Batteries are best kept in a cool, dry place. Do not allow batteries to accumulate condensation, as this could cause
shorting or corrosion.
⚫
The recommended storage temperature for both SLA and LI-ion batteries is between 32-77 ° F (0-25 ° C).
⚫
Avoid exposing the battery to extreme heat (104° F or higher) for long periods of time.
FAQ
Q: Is it normal that the batteries get warm when recharging?
A: Yes, it is normal that the batteries will become warm to the touch during the recharging process. This is because
the increase of internal resistance and less energy conversion efficiency from electric energy to chemical energy.
Q: How long will my batteries last before needing replacement ?
A: Average battery life depends on use and conditions. Even with proper care, rechargeable batteries do not last
forever. Conservatively, an SLA battery will come to the end of its useful after ~350 full discharge/charge cycles, while
Li-ion batteries will last more than 800 cycles. A partial charge/discharge counts fractionally against those numbers;
running the battery down halfway then recharging it completely uses up one half of a charge cycle.
