Rechargeable batteries can last years with proper care.
Most importantly, fully charge your battery:
• before the first use
• after each use
• before storing
• every 45 to 60 days when not in use.

Using the 9-hour Overnight Charger

To maximize the life of the battery, avoid overcharging it.
Estimate the depletion of the battery and charge it according
to the following chart:
Usage

2 hrs 30 min
It is very important to disconnect the battery from the charger
after the above charge time has elapsed. Setting a timer may
be helpful to avoid overcharging. When disconnecting the
battery and charger, grasp the connectors, not the cables.
It is also important to avoid over-discharging the battery.
When operating the light, turn the lamp off before it reaches
complete darkness.

Storage

Rechargeable batteries perform better and last longer if they
are brought to a complete charge before storing and every
45 to 60 days when not in use.
Disconnect the battery from the headlamp, and store the
system in a cool dry place.
