capacity. Use good inventory practices (first in, first out ) to
reduce time cells spend in storage.

4.2.4 Storage Humidity

Leakage and rusting of metal parts are accelerated
in high humidity environments, especially those with
correspondingly high temperatures. The recommended
humidity level for battery storage is a maximum of 60% RH.

4.2.5 Capacity Recovery

In normal practice, stored cells will provide full capacity on
the first discharge after removal from storage and charging
with standard methods. Cells stored for an extended period
or at elevated temperatures may require more than one
cycle to attain pre-storage capacities. Consultation with the
manufacturer is recommended if prolonged storage and
rapid restoration of capacity is requested.
