How to store a mod with built in battery?

[Cumulo Vapus]

As Im using 3 other mods in my rotation Ive stopped using my MVP 3.0 Pro. As you know its got a huge battery…about 4500mah….and when i kept it away it was about 60% charged.

If I just pack it away for a few months is there a chance it may die on me…..I definitely want to avoid this if i can.

What can I do? Do I have to throw it on a charger every 2 weeks or so….any advice?

That's about right for a storage charge.

Sure but if I ignore it for a few months, the battery will deplete, right? Will I need to charge it every now and then? If so, do I charge it fully? Is there some sort of minimum level before it could die in storage?

If the Battery does not experience any Dramatic Changes in Temperature, I don't think you are going to have any problems.

I just pulled an istick 40W out that I put away at about 1/2 Charge 4 or 5 Months ago. And the Battery Level looks the Same.

I think it is a Good Idea to take the Mod out of storage every 3 or 4 Months, charge it Fully, vape it down to 60% or so, and then put it away.

If you use Outlook for you e-Mail, this might be a Good thing to put as a Reoccurring Reminder in Outlook Calendar.

On acid batteries like vehicle batteries it is always best to store on a full slow on/off/on charge, but these polymer ion batteries are not as sensitive. Even though they are triple sealed it is best to keep them very very dry and temperatures not exceeding comfortable room temperature or too cold. So stuff some paper napkins around it in a box to absorb and release any moisture and keep it away from heat. A medium charge is probably sufficient and best. This is how the factories ship them anyway, so they must know something.

An internal battery does have a circuit attached, so shouldn't be confused with storing bare cells. Very low power usage but it would be best to check it more often at first.
