BOSCH 2 607 335 688 Power Tool Battery Care Tips for Long Lasting

The BOSCH 2 607 335 688 Cordless drill batteries are expensive. So get with the program and follow these battery care tips to get the longest life and best performance out of them.

1. Tool batteries can handle usually 800 to 1,000 charges. Don't recharge a drill battery if you've used it for just a few minutes.
2. Don't leave them in the car—either in the cabin or the trunk. Heat (above 140 degrees F) and subzero cold can reduce power tool battery life by 15 percent.
3. Storing a battery in direct sunlight can really heat it up, so shield it from the sun.
4. Don't store a discharged battery that has less than one-half charge. Give it a full charge and then store it.
5. If your tool was sold with two batteries and you're a part-time user, stick the extra one in the refrigerator. It'll last for years and you'll have a new one to use when the first one dies.

Best Practices for Charging BOSCH 2 607 335 688 Cordless Drill Battery

• Put a new BOSCH 2 607 335 688 cordless drill battery on its charger for a minimum of 18 hours before using it for the first time.
• Use the full capacity of the battery between charging for best results. Simply put, as a rule of thumb, you should discharge completely and charge completely.
• Do not leave a NiCd battery pack on its charger for more than 30 hours. They also will develop a memory that shortens the life between charges if you use it briefly and put it on the charger for short, "quick" charges. The full discharge and charge method is especially important for NiCd batteries.
• Discharge a battery pack fully before storing it. Store in cool, dry place of moderate temperature so that it will respond well when it comes time to recharge it.
