Battery cells suffer gradual, irreversible capacity loss over time. Such aging occurs more rapidly as temperature and discharge loads increase. Here are some suggested ways to minimize the capacity loss for your battery.
*
Store Li-Ion batteries between 20°C and 25°C (68°F and 77°F) with 30% to 50% charge.
*
Do not leave batteries exposed to high temperatures for extended periods. Prolonged exposure to heat (for example, inside a hot car) will accelerate the deterioration of Li-Ion cells.
*
Remove the battery if the notebook will be stored (turned off and not plugged into AC power) for more than 2 weeks.
*
Remove the battery if the notebook will be plugged into AC power continuously (via a wall adapter or docking station) for more than 2 weeks.
