The best way to store batteries

[JoeyC]

What would be the best way to keep your batteries in storage fully charged or half charged ?? Tia

My nephew told me charged. I have no clue why.

I've read that 40 percent is ideal then every few months check and bring them back to that.

I would be curious as to his recommendation though.

Thanks, Jim

I've heard @ 70% is ideal for long term

Wow, these replies are all over the place. I am wondering the same thing (Before they're officially labelled a tobacco product.).

We should store them the way we receive them. 40%-45% of capacity, contacts covered and at/or below room temperature.
