Proper maintenance extends the life and performance of your battery.

  • Storage: Store batteries in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. For long-term storage, ensure batteries are partially charged (around 50-70%) and recharge them every 3-6 months to prevent deep discharge.

  • Disposal: Spent batteries must be disposed of properly according to local and federal regulations. Do not dispose of batteries in household waste. Contact your local recycling center for information on battery recycling services.
