Title: How do I store the LI-ion batteries properly? Post by: Jedi Emi Takori on October 16, 2015, 12:04:06 AM I just noticed in the manual it's best to leave them in the charger when not using my saber, so is it really okay to leave them in the charger plugged in even if they're fully charged? (sounds like a silly question but I'm new to this whole thing so yeah)

Okay thank you :) as long as they don't overcharge (which I assume is what the trickle charge prevents) then I'm happy. Title: Re: How do I store the LI-ion batteries properly?

I have 4 chargers and I have batteries in them 24/7.

I have 4 chargers and I have batteries in them 24/7. That's really interesting that the chargers can do something like that. I always thought Lithium ion batteries overcharged a lot. But I guess it's quite useful if we can leave the batteries in the charger and not have to worry about damage being done to them, or their longevity decreased when you use your saber. :D |
