Maintaining battery life
With proper care and maintenance, you will
maintain the performance and life of the
battery. It is recommended that you:
!
Use only Tait chargers.
!
Avoid exposing batteries to high
temperatures (above 122°F (50°C)) or
extremely cold temperatures for long
periods of time (-4°F (-20°C) for NiMH,
and -22°F (-30°C) for NiCd).
!
Charge batteries at room temperature
(between 50°F (10°C) and 77°F (25°C)).
!
If battery shift life starts to degrade,
allow your nickel-based battery to fully
discharge. To do this, leave your radio
switched on and ignore the ‘battery
low’ warnings. When the radio switches
off, the battery is fully discharged.
!
Store batteries properly when not in
use. Refer to “Storing batteries” on the
next page.
