Looking After Your Hawk II Batteries
All batteries shall be controlled in accordance with the ―
Handling
Precautions and Prohibitions for Varta Microbattery GmbH Lilon
Polymer Pouch Batteries and General Supply Notices
‖.
The cells in your Hawk II battery are Lithium Ion which makes them ideal for
sitting on permanent charge (for example in a Cradle). However, if you
plan on putting your device in storage for any period of time you must
periodically charge and discharge the batteries (also known as cycling).
Storing Batteries
Ensure your Hawk II battery is stored between -20°c and +50°c. Storing it
outside this range will result in diminished battery life.
Your Hawk II battery must be cycled once every 30 days whilst in storage.
Battery Disposal
All batteries shall be returned to TouchStar Technologies Ltd for disposal.
