In case the device is tampered, and the main battery fails to charge, the extra
battery provided with the e280/e280s V2 device will power the security of the
device. This extra battery has a life of 2 yrs.
•
Ensure not to store the device for more than 1 week without charging, else the
secondary battery gets discharged in turn reducing the life of the battery.
•
Disconnecting and unplugging the device power pack will reduce the life of the
coin cell battery and might not recharge. You might have to replace the battery
if the battery is drained.
•
Conserve the battery power by turning the e280/e280s V2 device off when not
in use. Do not let the battery charge fall below 10% for extended period of time
as this may permanently reduce the battery capacity. Recharge the battery by
attaching the USB-C end of the power pack to the device and plug the other
end of the power pack into a wall outlet.
•
The e280 device automatically shuts down when the battery reaches the
critically low charge state. In this case, the battery must be recharged for a
minimum of half an hour before it can power the device. It may take several
recharge attempts to reset the safety circuit when charging the battery that
has been discharged below this critical state.
