Best Practices for Charging Lithium Batteries
To optimize charging, avoid overcharging by using devices with smart charging technology that stops once full. Limiting charge cycles to 20-80% (with occasional full charges for critical needs) reduces stress. Manufacturer-specified chargers are essential to prevent voltage inconsistencies, while slow charging (such as Level 2 charging for EVs) minimizes heat generation and wear. These strategies collectively extend battery longevity.
