CAUTION
8.5 Battery Replacement
8.5.1 Battery Life Expectations
The Lithium Polymer battery used in the EMG sensors is rated for a minimum of 300 charge-discharge
cycles. Typical usage is 500 charge-discharge cycles. As the number of charge-discharge cycles
increases the battery capacity slowly declines thereby reducing run time despite being fully charged.
Brand new batteries can operate up to 8 hours when fully charged. If the run time of the sensors drops
to 5-6 hours, battery replacement should be considered.
