How to extend the life of Makita 18V BL1860B lithium-ion batteries

Lithium-ion batteries have the characteristics of high energy density and low self-discharge.

It is said to be a small but energy efficient battery.

Our company use its own technology to take advantage of the characteristics of lithium-ion batteries

and use the communication function of the charger and the IC chip mounted on the battery.

Incorporating an optimal charging system, the battery life is further extended.

However, even though Makita BL1860B lithium-ion battery has a long life, it cannot be used indefinitely.

It is said to have a lifespan of 2 to 3 years for general household use. Lifespan tends to be shorter when used in the field.

There is no doubt that both will reach the end of their life, but batteries are not cheap at all, so You want it to last as long as possible!

So, this time, as far as possible know the tips and knowledge to extend the life of Makita BL1860B Li-ion Tool Batteries

I would like to introduce the secret tricks.

9 points to make BATTERY MAKITA BL1860B life extension

1,If you feel that the power of the power tool you are using has dropped and has become weaker,charge it.

2,Do not overload and use

3,Do not let it get wet (causes rust and short circuit)

4,Do not give impact (causes exterior damage and internal disconnection)

5,Do not recharge a fully charged battery unnecessarily

6,Refrain from using at high and low temperatures

7,When charging, the ambient temperature should be in the range of 10 ° C to 40 ° C.

8,For hot batteries, wait as much as possible after the fan has cooled down after charging.

9,For long-term storage of more than half a year (6 months), charge and store(avoid places with high temperature, low temperature and high humidity)
