Simple Guidelines
- Avoid frequent full discharges because this puts additional strain on the battery. Several partial discharges with frequent recharges are better for lithium-ion than one deep one. Recharging a partially charged lithium-ion does not cause harm because there is no memory. (In this respect, lithium-ion differs from nickel-based batteries.) Short battery life in a laptop is mainly cause by heat rather than charge / discharge patterns.
- Batteries with fuel gauge (laptops) should be calibrated by applying a deliberate full discharge once every 30 charges. Running the pack down in the equipment does this. If ignored, the fuel gauge will become increasingly less accurate and in some cases cut off the device prematurely.
- Keep the lithium-ion battery cool. Avoid a hot car. For prolonged storage, keep the battery at a 40% charge level.
- Consider removing the battery from a laptop when running on fixed power. (Some laptop manufacturers are concerned about dust and moisture accumulating inside the battery casing.)
- Avoid purchasing spare lithium-ion batteries for later use. Observe manufacturing dates. Do not buy old stock, even if sold at clearance prices.
- If you have a spare lithium-ion battery, use one to the fullest and keep the other cool by placing it in the refrigerator. Do not freeze the battery. For best results, store the battery at 40% state-of-charge.

How to Properly Charge RC LiPo Batteries?
RC users must be cautious when charging LiPo batteries. As warned in the instructions, LiPo batteries should be charged in a fire-proof, fire-safe container and should not be left unattended at any time. Fire-proof bags will also work and are easier for transport. To prolong the life of the LiPo batteries, allow them to cool for approximately 15 before charging. This also prevents the batteries from becoming overheated, leading to unnecessary damage to the batteries.

Can you prolong battery life by storage in refrigerator?
No not really. But it depends on the type of battery you are using. Basically the only battery that you can get more use out of if you put it in the refrigerator is NiMH and Nicad batteries, (mostly used for electronics) because those kinds of batteries lose their charge after a few days. So if you keep them in the fridge they will retain 90% charge for months. But other then that, putting batteries in the freezer or fridge is not recommended. Also, if you put batteries in the fridge, when you take them out you have to wait until the warm up a bit before you use them.
