1.3.Using Battery
Do not leave the battery unused for a long time, no matter it is in the device or
inventory.
The lifespan of a Li-ion battery is around 2 to 3 years, the battery capacity will be
lower after circularly charged about 300 times. (One full battery charge period
means completely charged and completely discharged.)
When the Li-ion battery is not in use, it will continue to discharge slowly.
Therefore, battery charging status should be checked frequently and take to
reference the related battery charging information on the manuals.
Observe and record the information of a new unused and non-fully charged
battery. Based on the operating time of the new battery and compare with a
battery that has been used for a long time. According to the product configuration
and application program, the operating time of the battery would be different.
Check battery charging status at regular intervals.
When battery operating time drops below about 80%, charging time will be
increased remarkably.
If a battery is stored or otherwise unused for an extended period, be sure to follow
the storage instructions in this document. If you do not follow the instructions,
and the battery has no charge remaining when you check it, consider it to be
damaged. Do not attempt to recharge it or to use it. Replace it with a new battery.
Store the battery at temperatures between 5 °C and 20 °C (41°F and 68°F).
TIP:
While charging, the device and the charger may become hot and stop
charging. This usually does not affect the device’s lifespan or performance and is in
the device’s normal range of operation. For more solutions to battery woes, refer to
Troubleshooting.
