How can I maximize battery performance of oxygen generator?
Here are several things you can do:
1. Break In New Batteries
New batteries are “dead batteries” when they arrive at your home. This just means you need to charge them before you use them. We recommend that you fully charge your oxygen battery then use it until it “dies,” then fully charge it again. Do this for 2 to 4 cycles to prime the battery to reach its maximum-rated capacity.
2. Keep Your Batteries Clean
Clean dirty battery contacts with a cotton swab and alcohol. This helps maintain a good connection between the battery and the portable device.
3. Exercise Your Battery
Don’t leave batteries dormant for long periods of time. We recommend using your battery at least once every 2 to 3 weeks. If a battery hasn’t been used for a long time, re-perform the new battery break-in procedure described above.
4. Battery Storage
If you don’t plan on using your battery for a month or more, store it in a clean, dry, cool place away from heat and metal objects. NiCad, NiMH and Li-Ion batteries will self-discharge during storage; remember to break them in before use.
