Battery Care

Let's highlight key points to optimize battery care.

  • Avoid excessive heat and cold.  Do not keep the EUC in your car during hot days. Heat kills batteries.
  • To maximize battery lifespan, keep your charge level between 30-80%. This requires you to unplug your charger before it reaches full. With a little practice and understanding of your EUC, you will know when it's time to unplug.
  • There is no danger in charging to 100%, but constantly charging to 100% will decrease the lifespan of your battery over time.
  • When storing your battery or unit, store it between 30-80% of maximum capacity. Charge the unit at least every 2 months while in storage.
  • Unplug the charger when not in use. Leaving the charger plugged into the wall will degrade its internals over time.
  • Fast charging the batteries has not been shown to have a long-term detrimental effect on battery lifespan.
  • While in Use: Heavy acceleration, high speeds, and heavy deceleration put the most strain on the batteries. Avoiding heavy usage will allow for maximum distance and battery lifespan.
  • Avoid water. If water enters the battery then it can result in battery failure and even cause a battery fire.
