Battery Lifetime Management
The lifetime of a li-ion battery depends on the frequency and duration of
use. When properly cared for, the useful life is approximately 4 years or 500
complete charge-discharge cycles, whichever comes first. In addition,
experience indicates that the incidence of failure may increase with battery
service life due to the accumulated stresses of daily use. We therefore
strongly recommend that li-ion batteries be replaced after 2 years or 500
complete charge-discharge cycles.
The age of a li-ion battery begins at the date of manufacture. The date of
manufacture is listed on the side of the battery.
