A well manufactured device should have several safeguard features built into it to protect the user from over discharging and overcharging of the battery. This does not mean that users should take liberties with batteries, so standard battery safety measures should be taken when using any lithium ion battery, no matter the safety features provided.
- Never leave your battery charging overnight or unattended.
- Charge you battery until the charger shows it has completed its cycle and no longer.
- Only use the specified compatible charging equipment supplied to you by your retailer for that particular device.
- Avoid covering any Vent Holes on the device whilst charging.
- Do not leave batteries unattended in a hot environment like your car for instance.
- Discontinue use of a battery where the outer packaging has been breached or broken.
