Once a lithium battery is fully charged, its power will naturally decrease even if it is not used. For lithium batteries that are not used for a long time, it is recommended to charge and discharge them every two months to maintain battery health. If not charged for more than a month, the battery power will be significantly reduced, resulting in wear. Therefore, if the lithium battery is not used after being fully charged, it is recommended to charge it from time to time to maintain the health of the battery.
Yes, keeping it without power for a long time will cause damage to the battery, which is irreversible and cannot be repaired. The battery cannot be replaced.
If not charged for a long time, the battery itself will automatically discharge. If self-dischargeis large, the battery may be seriously cracked and short-circuited. So it may not be available. Lithium batteries have no memory effect and can be recharged at any time.
Lithium battery storage methods that are not suitable for long-term use:
1. If lithium batteries are not used for a long time, they should be charged to 50% to 80% power, removed from the instrument and stored in a dry and cool place, and recharge the battery every 3 months to avoid excessive storage time and too low battery due to self-discharge, resulting in irreversible capacity. loss.
2. Self-discharge of lithium batteries is affected by ambient temperature and humidity. High temperature and humidity will accelerate the battery's self-discharge. It is recommended to store the battery in a dry environment. 0℃ and 20℃.
