The PowerPack with lithium-ion cells can be briefly charged at any time regardless of its charging state. Interruptions of the charging process do not harm the battery. Complete discharge is not required. 

 

Even after prolonged storage, such as during the winter, it is possible to use the rechargeable battery without recharging it. This means PowerPacks do not need to be recharged after a long break in use. For longer storage, a charge status of approximately 30 to 60% is recommended. 

 

PowerPacks are designed for many tours, miles, and years of service. The intelligent, electronic Bosch battery management system (BMS) protects lithium-ion batteries from excessive temperatures, overcharging, and deep discharge. The BMS checks every cell, extending the life of the battery. This makes the time from initial use to the need to replace a PowerPack.
