[Duo2400] Re: how to store 2400c LiON battery for long term

[Brian Getz]

If you are going to store it (which I don't
recommend), Store it. If you take it out and use it
then put it back into storage you will decrease the
life each time. The 2 year storage is based on the
general physics of the LI-ion. The numbers are not set
in stone your results will vary, a lot of factors come
into play, age of the battery, amount of usage, amount
of capacity still left etc. Remember that like all
batteries these also have a finite number of recharges
before the don't take a charge anymore.

If you don't need or use battery power that much you
don't need a spare. I say sell it someone who can use
it.
