Battery storage

[spark29]

Hi. My batteries has been unused for almost 4 weeks and are discharging as they should. But would it be a good idea to charge them a little to say 80 % ? I'd love to have them for years to come

Do whatever you need to do to keep the current storage level within this range:

Well, led 3 is blinking on all three batteries. Is it then safe not to charge them?

You can safely charge them at anytime. However, it wouldn't make sense to charge them back up if you're not going to use them since they will auto discharge back down to that range.

Shall i leave the batteries as they are?

Yes. They are currently within the ideal storage range.

I found lots of good information about Spark batteries on this Youtube video.
It’s 50 minutes long, but full of good stuff IMO.

Hope you have time.
