damaged by deep discharge.
Repeated deep discharges will result in capacity loss and ultimately in premature
failure. The deep discharge protection of the new Olli energisers prevents a
complete discharge of the battery, but the battery will last a lot longer, if it is
charged regularly and well before the deep discharge protector cuts off the power.
These issues do concern also to some extent the leisure batteries.
To maximize the battery life even leisure batteries should be charged already
when they are about half empty. A solar cell will keep the 12 V battery properly
charged, and especially with Olli 250B Plus you can well use a normal starter
battery to store electricity. Please note that the battery should be initially fully
charged. Remember to charge the battery regularly also when it is stored to
prevent sulphating that is caused by self discharge. An empty battery may freeze
and get damaged. Therefore do not store batteries in spaces that may freeze in
the winter. Also excessive heat may damage a battery.
IMPORTANT:
The battery produces explosive gases during charging.
Always take care of a proper ventilation and do not handle fire near the
battery. A large lead battery can produce a high peak current that may be
dangerous. Never short cut the poles of the battery! The battery contains
acid. Discard a leaking battery with care. Recycle used batteries properly.

The capacity of an old lead battery is always lower than the nominal capacity. The
battery life values are estimates that are intended to assist in choosing the best
energiser and battery. The indicated values are no guarantee for a certain battery
life time. The real battery life depends on manner of use and other conditions.
