High quality lithium-ion batteries are used in your Ex-Handy 07. These
batteries have numerous advantages in everyday use, such as a low weight
and high capacity in a nevertheless compact construction. In addition these
batteries also exhibit practically no memory effect. However, these batteries
are susceptible to a natural ageing process which impairs their functionality.
Modern batteries today have a lifespan of around 500 charge cycles, which,
when used daily, corresponds to a service life of approximately 2 years. The
ageing process increases rapidly after this period, which means that the
batteries are deemed technically defective after 500 charge cycles. Moreover,
the batteries could blow up and cause irreparable damage to your device in a
worst case scenario.
For this reason rechargeable batteries with lithium cells should be replaced
after 2 years at the latest or after reaching a battery capacity that is 50% of its
initial value.
Note:
The battery used in this unit poses a fire hazard and can cause chemical
injuries if it is used improperly. Neither the battery nor the battery cells should
be opened or disassembled and they should not be burned or exposed to
tempera,tures exceeding 100 °C.
