Pb-Battery
Decoder
- Fully charge before storing (100 %).
- Store as cool as possible (0°C - 40°C / 32°F - 104°F)
- If stored at 25°C (77°F), the battery should be fully charged after 6 months at the latest. The warmer it is stored, the sooner it discharges.

- Charge the battery to 100% again before using it in the new season.
We advise against a permanent connection to the power supply during storage!
LiPo-Battery
Track Box Passiv, Track Box Activ, Active Loop Box, USB-Timing Box, Active Management Box
- Charge to about 50-80% before storing (do not fully charge!)
- The battery can be stored at -20°C - 50°C (-7°F - 122°F), we recommend a temperature of approx. 25°C (77°F) (and a humidity of 45-75%)
- The state of charge of the battery should be checked every 3-4 months. Even if the self-discharge of LiPo batteries (~4% per month) is not as high as e.g. with lead batteries, recharging may be necessary.
- Deep discharging should be avoided in any case, as it can lead to permanent damage to the battery.
