Lithium-ion batteries are a newer type of battery now used in most of consumer electronics
devices. Lithium-ion batteries offer a wide array of benefits and, compared with traditional
battery technology, they charge faster, last longer, and have a higher power density for more
battery life in a lighter package.

Avoid extreme ambient temperatures:
Lithium-ion batteries perform well in a wide range of ambient temperatures, with 15° to 25° C
as the ideal range. It’s essential to avoid exposing the H-500 device to ambient temperatures
higher than 35° C: operating and charging at such high temperatures may permanently
damage battery capacity. Similarly, storing the device in a very hot environment can also
damage the battery irreversibly. Using the H-500-CE/BK in cold temperatures may cause the
battery to discharge faster, but this condition is temporary. Once the battery’s temperature
returns to its normal operating range, its performance will return to normal as well. The reason
for this behavior is that batteries function via a chemical reaction that occurs inside their
sealed foil envelopes. Since the chemical reaction doubles its speed for every ten degrees
increase of ambient temperature, lithium-

and may degrade faster in hot climate.

Store half-charged for long term:
When storing the H-500-CE/BK device long term, a few key factors will affect the overall
health of the lithium-ion battery, in particular the environmental temperature and the
percentage of charge on the battery when it’s powered down for storage. Please follow these
guidelines:

o not fully charge or fully discharge your device’s battery, but rather charge it to around
50%. If you store a device when its battery is fully discharged, the battery could fall into a
deep discharge state, incapable of holding a charge. Conversely, if you store it fully charged
for an extended period, the battery may lose some capacity, leading to shorter battery life.
- Power down the device to avoid additional battery use and place it in a cool, moisture-free,
environment at a temperature less than 30° C.
- If storing the device for longer than six months, make sure to recharge it to 50% every six
months. Depending on how long you stored the device, it may be in a low-battery state when
you remove it from long-term storage and it may require several minutes of charging before it
reaches the optimal charged range.
DISCLAIMER
Allowing the battery to fully discharge down to the EMPTY state will reduce the
battery’s lifetime and require a lengthy recovery procedure (ref. section 4.4)
