DISCHARGING LITHIUM CHEMISTRY BATTERIES CAN CAUSE PERMANENT
DAMAGE TO THE BATTERY AND IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR
ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE DISPOSAL OF THE BATTERY. IF YOU CHOOSE
TO DISCHARGE YOUR LITHIUM BATTERIES, MAKE SURE TO PAY CLOSE
ATTENTION TO THE MINIMUM VOLTAGE SETTING. IF YOU WANT TO STORE
YOUR BATTERY FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME, YOU SHOULD UTILIZE THE
STORAGE MODE CHARGE PROGRAM AS THIS IS THE SAFEST METHOD OF
STORING YOUR LITHIUM CHEMISTRY BATTERIES.
IN DISCHARGE MODE, LITHIUM BATTERIES CAN BE DISCHARGED
WITH OR WITHOUT THE USE OF A BALANCE ADAPTOR. THE USE OF
A BALANCE ADAPTOR IS RECOMMENDED FOR DISCHARGING ANY
BATTERY THAT HAS A BALANCE LEAD.
