Planning to store your battery for a long period of time (>2 months)? We'd recommend you to follow the tips below to keep your battery fighting fit for when you next need to use it.
- Remove the battery from the bike.
- Lithium-ion batteries are best stored at a 40–60% charge level. During long term
storage, recharge your battery to 40–60% every 90 days. Determine charge level using
either the built-in charge indicator on the battery pack, or the battery gauge on the bike. - Batteries slowly self-discharge when left unused for a long period of time; if the battery
cells are allowed to reach a critically low voltage, their lifespan and capacity will be
permanently reduced. - Always disconnect your charger from the wall outlet and battery before storing the battery.
- Avoid storing your battery in extreme temperatures, whether hot or cold.
- Batteries are best kept in a cool, dry place. Do not allow your battery to accumulate
condensation, as this could cause corrosion or a short-circuit. - The recommended storage temperature for Li-Ion batteries is between 32–77°F (0–25°C).
