Prolonging life of Li-Ion/Li-Po batteries
The biggest enemy of Li-Ion/Li-Po batteries is the heat. Degradation happens faster at higher temperatures. Therefore, make sure to keep them at the room temperature. Also, you shouldn’t leave them fully charged or discharged. If you store them while fully charged and if you leave them completely dead, their capacity will degrade relatively quickly. It’s better to leave them at 40% charged.
