The battery is equipped with high-performance lithium-manganese cells, so-called LIMA
cells. The LIMA cells have a self-discharge of under 1% per month at 20°C, are cyclically
stable and have no memory effect. The lithium battery can be used at an ambient
temperature of between -20°C and +45°C.
The battery has an integrated control system that has several functions for protecting and
caring for your battery. Among other functions, the control system protects the battery
against overdischarge as well as overcharging. So you can leave the battery on the
charger or empty it completely without worry.
The current charge status can be determined by pressing the „battery charge“ button at
any time. After pressing the button, the LEDs will illuminate for approx. 10 seconds and
show the charge level of the battery as a percentage.
When charging, the battery‘s control system regulates the charging current. The light
diodes glow permanently on the capacity areas that are already charged. The light diodes
of the capacity areas that are currently charging flash. Once charging is complete and the
battery is fully charged, the LEDs extinguish.
The real capacity of your battery is subject to technical fluctuations. Its capacity will also
change over time. To compensate for the capacity change, the charge indicator will adjust
to the battery‘s capacity. In order to ensure the charge indicator continues to show reliable
values, it is necessary to empty the battery to below 20% and then fully load it once a
year.
