Battery practice
▪
To extend the battery life cycle time it is a good practice
to recondition the batteries in a separate charger that has
recondition options like refresh / discharge. It is a good
idea to condition the batteries once in about 6 months or
after around 12 regular charge cycles to get the most out
of them.
▪
To prevent the batteries from becoming fully discharged,
if MOM2 is not used regularly, a good rule of thumb is to
charge the batteries every month.
