Battery Life

The life of batteries is primarily defined by the following factors: • Electrical loading • Charging method • Temperatures on charging, discharging and storage • Quality of the cells Losses in capacity caused by incorrect charging are practically excluded with the Leica Geosystems chargers which have special switch off criteria to protect the battery. Reduction in battery capacity is normally due to age. However it can also be the result of storage at excessively low or high temperatures (see Section 2.6).

Protecting the environment/disposal

For reasons of environmental protection and safety, used or defective batteries must not be thrown away. They must be correctly disposed of in a discharged state. Follow the national regulations on disposal.

Safety/precautionary measures

For the safe usage of batteries, please refer to the section on safety in the User Manual supplied with the products.

Defective batteries

Even in the case of correct handling, it may occur that a statistically small number of batteries fail prematurely. A possibly defective cell must never be replaced in a battery pack. The cells in a battery pack are all from the same manufacturing batch and thus have the same manufacturing tolerances. If new and old cells are mixed, the weaker (old) cells in the battery pack are more heavily loaded and further failures inevitable. For this reason, the entire battery pack is always replaced in Leica Geosystems service centres. The Li-Ion and camcorder type batteries are in sealed housings and the cells cannot be replaced.
