Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries generally provide superior performance to
nickel-cadmium batteries when used in power tools.
Faster charges
Longer battery life
More power
Lighter weight
Lithium-ion batteries perform best and deliver peak output power at room temperature
(20° C or 68° F). When operated in lower temperatures, the battery output will be reduced
and it will NOT function below –20° C (-4° F). The output power will increase as the heat
generated by the battery during use increases the internal temperature of the battery. The
result is increased power as the tool is used.
Lithium-ion batteries share many characteristics with nickel-cadmium batteries.
The major characteristic that is NOT shared with nickel-cadmium batteries is that
Lithium-ion batteries do not have a “memory” and do not require to be completely
discharged periodically. It is recommended that you charge your Lithium-ion batteries
after each use so they will be fully charged when needed.
NOTE:
A fully charged battery will loose about 2% of its charge per month during storage.
