a battery lasts. A battery which is overcharged and
discharged 100 % for several times a day, lasts fewer
cycles than a battery that overcharges less and is
discharged to 50 % per day. Battery with minimal
overcharge and has an average of 25 % discharge, lasts
even longer.
Motorola Solutions batteries are designed specifically to be
used with a Motorola Solutions charger and vice versa.
Charging batteries with non-Motorola Solutions equipment
may lead to battery damage and void the battery warranty.
Whenever possible, maintain the battery temperature to 77
°F (25 °C) (room temperature). Charging a cold battery
(below 50 °F [10 °C]) may result in leakage of electrolyte
and ultimate failure of the battery. Charging a hot battery
(above 95 °F [35 °C]) results in reducing discharge
capacity and affecting the performance of the radio.
Motorola Solutions rapid-rate battery chargers contain a
temperature-sensing circuit to ensure that batteries are
charged within the temperature limits.
