Hi, I have 3 different kits of ego style
batteries - 650, 900, and 1100. My question is; if I want to store one to save for later should it be put away fully charged or completely drained of power?
Thanks for any advise! daleron
Standard tech says store at 40%. That is USUSALLY what they're shipped from UNLESS the vendor charges fully - some do that. So....
I'd go by the stated mAH - 2 ways...
650 = 6.5 hours... 40% = from fully charged power
vape it for almost 4 hours.
900 = 9 hours.... 40% = from full charged, power vape (basically only use it) for almost 5.5 hours.
1100 = 10-11 hours ... 40% = from full charge, vape for 6.5 hours.
2nd way:
from fully out of charge - put it on the charger and time it - you'll have to keep an eye on it
Vape it to out of charge again and then charge for only 40% of the full time - this may not be as accurate as it may not be a linear charging..... but close enough.
Maybe someone has a better way. I'd do the first one.... keeping track of breaks taken, etc.
IF you happen to Not have used one of them - assume it's at 40% and store that one.
This is for 'optimal storage' - which I'm guessing you're after.
