Notes concerning charger usage with BLUESHAPE battery
packs

It is recommended that the users always have at least another
spare battery readily available.

It is preferable to charge batteries immediately before use.
Some loss from self-discharge would result if the batteries are
charged several weeks in advance of their use. However, this slight
loss can be topped up at any time without any degradation of
battery performance (no memory effect)

It is recommended to store batteries in a cool and dry place.
Charging should be done at temperatures above 0°C and below
45°C.

Slight heating of the battery is expected to occur during charge.
However if for some reason, the pack temperature reaches 60°C,
then the charge activity is suspended.
The pack resumes normal charging once the temperature drops
back to below 50°C. This is a safety feature incorporated in all
BLUESHAPE battery packs.
