Guideline for optimizing your battery’s life :

 
• You can charge / discharge your battery in any manner with a compatible battery charger. Li-ion batteries are not prone to memory effect. You do not need to fully discharge your battery before recharging it.

 

• NEVER leave your battery empty for storage. The battery’s electronics require a very small amount of current to work and will drain the battery after several months of storage.

 

• To store your battery charge it to approx. 40 – 60 %. This will provide 4 to 6 months of shelf life. Check the battery’s capacity every month. If the battery reaches 20 % recharge it to 40 – 60%.

 

• The greatest effect on the self-discharge is storage temperature. Higher temperatures increase self-discharge. Storage of cells and batteries in non-temperature controlled facilities in hot climates can cause faster self discharge hence the storage method plays a role in the shelf life of the product. For optimum shelf life store your batteries in a cool place. You can store your battery in your fridge (3 – 4 deg celsius). We do not recommend storing your batteries in a freezer.

 

Fuel gauge accuracy
If you were to observe fuel gauge discrepancy proceed as follows :
• Fully charge the battery
• Fully discharge the battery by connecting it to your equipment (i.e leave the battery cut off)
• Fully recharge the battery again Your battery is now recalibrated.


Embedded OLED fuel gauge (OFG) operation

 
1. Waking up the OFG from deep sleep :
If the battery has been in idle mode for a period of more than 90 minutes (i.e. no current draw) the OFG will enter deep sleep.
The OFG can be woken up by shaking the battery which triggers the internal accelerometer and turns the display on. After 4 minutes the display will turn off again and the OFG will enter normal sleep mode

 

 

 

2. Waking up the OFG from normal sleep :

 

 

 

3. OFG dynamic information display :

 
The battery’s OFG will start displaying dynamic SoC (State of Charge) information if the 2 following conditions are met :
1. OFG is in normal sleep mode
2. The battery is connected to a load or charger and the current draw or input is > 50mA

 

The OFG will always remain OFF if the battery is connected to an SMBUS compatible device. When connected to a SMBUS compatible device (for example a DC current distributor, smart charger or digital audio recorder/mixer with SMBUS capabilities) the host is responsible for retrieving battery SoC information and displaying them to the user.

 

The OFG does not need to be woken up for the battery to supply power to the device it’s connected to. Power supply capability of the battery is fully indepedent from the OFG’s status/operation. Provided a battery is fully or partially charged (and not in protection mode) it will always supply power to the device it’s connected to even if the OFG is in normal or deep sleep mode.
