Battery Storage

If a battery will be shipped or will not be used for long periods of time, it is highly recommended to put the battery into storage mode.
Depending on the battery’s state of charge, putting the battery into storage mode will either charge or discharge the battery to a voltage that is most stable for shipping and sitting for long periods of time.
Plug the battery’s power cable into the charger
Hold the Storage button for 5 seconds.
The charger will beep, the fans will spin up, and the LCD display will indicate that storage mode has begun.
The Internal Battery Management System supports high-power discharge.
Considering the internal structure and safety of the cells:
When the battery is fully charged, if the battery is static, there is no communication, and there is no high current, after waiting for 120 hours, the battery will turn on automatically. This process will continue until the voltage is 3.90V. The current size of the discharge unit is about 50ma.
(e.g.) The remaining capacity of BMS is about 16Ah. After about 7 days, a single cell will drop to 3.90V.
When the cell voltage reaches 3.90V, the peripheral self-discharge circuit will stop working.
At this point, the MCU will continue to enter a low-power sleep mode.
(e.g.) When the cell voltage is 3.90V, the remaining capacity of the BMS is about 8Ah, and at a normal temperature of 25'C, the capacity of self-consumption for a month is 500mAh including the cell and the self-consumption of the BMS system.
