3.4 Battery care
The LiteWare HO2 contains a sealed (GEL) lead-acid battery. The battery should not be left in a
discharged state for long periods because this will reduce its capacity. We recommend leaving the LiteWare HO2
on charge permanently when not in use.
The following points should help maintain the long life of your LiteWare battery:
• When in use, the LiteWare HO2 automatically switches off when the battery voltage reaches a set lower
limit.
This is to avoid any deep discharge damage of the battery. It is not recommended that LiteWare batteries be
left for any prolonged period in this state. Discharging the battery under 70% accelerates its aging process.
• The LiteWare HO2 should always be fully re-charged as soon as possible. Once fully charged LiteWare HO2 can be
stored.
• If the LiteWare HO2 is to be unused for long periods, we recommend the LiteWare HO2 is charged every two
months to keep the batteries topped up.
• From market data, the estimated number of uses in a normal environment is around 200 cycles.
This may be higher if the LiteWare HO2 is not run to ‘turning off automatically’ every time. We recommend
replacing LiteWare battery every two years.
• Do not disconnect the LiteWare unit from the charging case before reaching 90% of the battery capacity.
