Hikoki Battery MaintenanceUpdated 2 hours ago

Proper maintenance can help maximise battery lifespan and maintain performance.

Use the Correct Charger

Always use a genuine HiKOKI charger designed for your battery platform.

Using incompatible charging equipment can affect both safety and performance.

Store Batteries Correctly

For best results:

• Store batteries in a cool, dry location.
• Avoid direct sunlight and excessive heat.
• Keep batteries away from moisture.
• For long-term storage, maintain a partial charge where possible.

Avoid Deep Discharging

Lithium-ion batteries generally perform best when recharged before becoming fully depleted.

Regular deep discharging can contribute to reduced battery lifespan over time.

Keep Battery Contacts Clean

Dirty contacts can cause charging issues and inconsistent tool performance.

Inspect battery terminals regularly and clean them using a soft, dry cloth.

Allow Batteries to Cool Before Charging

Following prolonged or demanding applications, allow the battery to cool before placing it on charge.

This can help reduce stress on the battery cells and support longer service life.

How long should a HiKOKI battery last?

Battery lifespan will vary depending on usage, charging habits and storage conditions. With proper care, HiKOKI lithium-ion batteries can provide many years of reliable cordless performance.
