Battery Guide

New Lithium Battery Initialisation
Any new fixture containing a Lithium battery should be initialised when first purchased to maximise its battery life.
To do this:
1. Fully charge the unit for a minimum of 5 to 6 hours.
2. Fully discharge, then fully recharge the battery.
3. Repeat this cycle another 2 times for optimum battery life.
Maximizing Battery Performance
1. Lithium batteries perform best when in regular use. Long idle periods will reduce the battery life.
2. Recharge the battery at the earliest opportunity, leaving batteries discharged for long periods will reduce battery life.
3. Store units containing Lithium batteries at cool temperatures. High ambient temperatures significantly reduce the life
of a Lithium battery.
4. Disconnect power from the unit when charging is complete.
5. Do not use fixtures whilst charging.
Long term storage
1. Charge your fixture's battery to around 50%. If you store a fixture with a fully discharged battery, it could fall into a
deep discharge state. If you store it fully charged, the battery may lose some capacity, leading to shorter battery life.
2. Power down the device to avoid additional battery use.
3. Place your device in a cool, moisture-free environment that's less than 32° C (90° F).
