Caution!
The number of cycles depends on the depth and current of discharge of the device. Their number is not less than 2000, with a discharge depth of
100% DoD and a current of 0.3C. After reaching 2000 cycles the device is operational but its capacity does not exceed 80% of the rated capacity.
Discharging and charging the battery with high current and improper use (e.g. improper storage) will also reduce capacity. For more information on
harmful factors please refer to the above mentioned operating instructions.
Battery service life is estimated at more than 12 years.
