Page 29: Frequently Asked Questions
All batteries will begin to self-discharge while not in use, therefore, if you know that your EMU Trike™ is going to sit for 2 weeks or more, you will want store it with some charge. The recommended status of charge when storing a lithium battery is about 40%-50%. This will allow a slower self-discharge than if stored with the battery at 100%. - Page 30 Contact us directly when you are ready to order another lithium battery for your EMU Trike™. I have not used my EMU Trike™ for several months and have not charged it during this time. Why won’t it charge? The lithium ion battery has built-in safety features, including one that shuts down the battery if it is drained or self-discharged below a particular level (usually 2.5V to 3.0V/Cell).
- Page 31 EMPTY then give it a good charge right away. (To ensure a long battery life, NEVER let EMU Trike™ sit idle on EMPTY for any length of time.) Remember, this recalibration is only done after approximately every 30 partial charges. This will give your fuel gauge a more accurate reading regarding the current level of battery charge.
