Battery care
Batteries should be treated with care to get the designed performance from the battery. The
cell manufacturer guarantees 300 charge/discharge cycles provided that good care is taken.
• Do not discharge the cells below 2.5 V per cell
• Do not expose the cells to high temperatures
• High rates of discharge shorten the life of the cell
• Do not store batteries fully charged or empty.
• Do not charge the batteries too fast
• Comply with long term storage specifications
Long term storage
It is recommended to remove RES batteries and store them in a dry place with the following
conditions:
State of Charge: 35-50%
Temperature: 10-23 °C
Humidity: <75%
