How do I protect my lithium-ion battery?

Here are a few ways to keep your lithium-ion batteries healthy.

1. 1: Keep your batteries at room temperature.
2. 2: Think about getting a high-capacity lithium-ion battery, rather than carrying a spare.
3. 3: Allow partial discharges and avoid full ones (usually)
4. 4: Avoid completely discharging lithium-ion batteries.

How do I keep my battery pack healthy?

Boosting Battery Life

1. Use partial-discharge cycles.
2. Avoid charging to 100\% capacity.
3. Select the correct charge termination method.
4. Limit the battery temperature.
5. Avoid high charge and discharge currents.
6. Avoid very deep discharges (below 2 V or 2.5 V)

How do you store lithium-ion battery packs?

Batteries should be stored away from sunlight, heat, and humidity. Keep the storage area ventilated and dry, and maintain a relatively steady temperature. The ideal battery storage temperature is around 59℉, but most room temperatures will suffice.

Is it OK to leave a lithium ion battery on the charger?

If you do fill your battery all the way up, don’t leave the device plugged in. This isn’t a safety issue: Lithium-ion batteries have built-in safeguards designed to stop them from exploding if they’re left charging while at maximum capacity.

How do you store battery packs?

Store them at room temperature or below Most people store them at room temperature, in a dry environment, which is perfectly fine. The perfect temperature for most batteries is 15° Celsius, but a little warmer doesn’t harm your batteries.

Are lithium batteries hazardous to your health?

Lithium batteries are generally safe and unlikely to fail, but only so long as there are no defects and the batteries are not damaged. When lithium batteries fail to operate safely or are damaged, they may present a fire and/or explosion hazard.

How often should you charge lithium ion batteries?

Charge the battery to approximately 50\% of capacity at least once every six months. Remove the battery and store it separately from the product. Store the battery at temperatures between 5 °C and 20 °C (41 °F and 68 °F).

Why is my battery health so low?

Turn on auto-brightness. The brightest screen settings tend to drain your battery quickly, which forces you to go through charge cycles quickly and lose battery health. Check your background activity in Settings > General > Background Refresh. Too many apps running in the background will drain your battery.
