Proper Storage of Your Electric Skateboard - Maximize Battery Life
Proper storage of your electric skateboard is crucial for maintaining its performance and extending the life of your battery. Here are some essential tips to keep your board in top condition:
Store Indoors and Safely
Always store your board indoors in a dry space, away from heat or flame sources and out of direct sunlight. This will help protect the board's components and battery from potential damage.
Avoid Extreme Temperatures
- Hot Environments: Do not leave your board in a hot car or any environment that exposes your board to high heat. Prolonged exposure to heat can permanently affect or damage your battery.
- Cold Environments: Do not leave your board outside or in an environment where freezing temperatures may occur. Cold temperatures can also have a negative impact on your battery's performance and longevity.
Maintain Ideal Battery Charge
If you will not be using your battery for a prolonged period of 1 MONTH OR MORE, it is recommended to store your board BETWEEN 40 AND 50% charge. This helps maintain the battery's health and prevents damage from deep discharge or overcharging.
Battery Storage Precautions
Note: If your battery is fully charged and not used for a period of months, there may be a permanent loss of total battery capacity. Conversely, if the battery is stored near depleted for a prolonged period, it may drop to an unrecoverable voltage and be permanently damaged.
By following these storage guidelines, you can ensure that your electric skateboard remains in optimal condition, ready for your next ride. Preserve the life of your battery and keep your skateboard performing at its best with proper care and storage.
