Battery Type Characteristics
Lead Acid Batteries
- Just like the battery in an automobile, lead acid batteries work best when kept fully charged.
- Do not like to be completely discharged.
Lithium-Powered Equipment
- Best if never discharged completely.
- Best stored at half-charge if long-term.
Nickel Metal-Hydride Equipment
- Memory effect if not completely discharged periodically.
- Lose charge relatively quickly during storage.
- Needs to be kept on charge always (because of second point) except for periodic cycling (because of first point).
