Reduced RuntimeUpdated 2 hours ago

A noticeable drop in runtime is often one of the first signs of battery wear.

Possible Causes

• Natural battery ageing
• Repeated heavy-duty use
• Long periods in storage
• Frequent deep discharging
• Cell deterioration

Resolution

• Fully charge the battery before use.
• Avoid storing batteries in a fully discharged state.
• Store batteries in a cool, dry environment.
• Compare performance with another battery of the same specification.

If runtime has reduced significantly, the battery may be approaching the end of its service life.
