Battery Storage

Lithium ion batteries can be stored from -4° F (-20° C) to 140° F (+60° C) at up
to 80% relative humidity� However, they are best stored below
70° F (21° C) in a cool, dry, well-ventilated facility free from corrosive gas or
vapor�
Storage at temperatures above 113° F (45° C), such as in a hot car, may
degrade battery performance and reduce battery life� Storage at low
temperatures may affect initial battery performance.
