Drone Battery Care: Tips for Longer Life and Better Performance

Drone Battery Care: Tips for Longer Life and Better Performance

If you are passionate about photography, Ruko drones are a fantastic choice, giving you a whole new perspective to capture the world like never before. However, battery issues can sometimes stand in the way of a smooth flight experience. In this blog, we will share some useful tips on how to properly use and store your drone batteries to help extend their lifespan and ensure more reliable flights.

1. Usage Specifications

It is recommended to perform charging and discharging operations once a month. It is strictly forbidden to store the battery with a full charge. The power can be maintained at 60%, which helps to maintain the activity of the battery and extend the battery life.

When charging, it is not recommended to use fast charging that exceeds the product's rated power, as this may cause irreversible damage to the battery. In addition, the battery is in a high-temperature state after just being used. At this time, you need to wait for it to cool down before charging. At the same time, it is strictly forbidden to let the battery be in an overcharged state for a long time. Overcharging will accelerate battery aging and affect battery performance.

2. Storage requirements

Be sure to store the battery in a cool environment and avoid high-temperature exposure. High-temperature environment will harm the chemical substances inside the battery, resulting in a decrease in battery performance.

The environment where the battery is stored for a long time cannot be damp. A humid environment will damage the battery cell inside the battery, which will cause the battery to be defective.

3. Physical protection

Prevent the battery from being severely squeezed for various reasons, such as avoiding heavy objects from pressing on the battery during transportation or storage. At the same time, it is also necessary to prevent the battery from falling from a high altitude. Once the battery is severely squeezed or falls from a high altitude, it is very likely to cause the battery to scrap.

Never soak the battery in water. Once the battery is soaked in water, the battery protection board will fail, directly leading to the battery malfunction.

4. Circuit maintenance

When the battery is low and is placed in the drone for a long time, the battery will be slightly discharged, although the drone is not operating. If this continues for a long time, the battery will be over-discharged, so this situation should be avoided.

Avoid long-term high-temperature exposure of the battery, because high-temperature exposure will cause internal short circuits in the battery cell, eventually making the battery scrap.

Be careful to prevent the positive and negative poles of the battery from being short-circuited for a long time. For example, water, hair, and foreign matter on the battery connector may result in a short circuit. Once the short circuit lasts for more than 30 minutes, the protection board IC will fail and disconnect, rendering the battery unable to work properly.

Summary

The above suggestion will help you take the stress out of flying your drone without worrying about the defective battery issue. For more assistance, you can contact our exceptional 7/24 Ruko customer service to guarantee your smooth flight experience.
