I purchased a new dive light earlier this year which came with two lithium batteries. I was pretty careful to alternate the batteries and to store them, charged, in a cool, dry place.
After not diving for a couple of months I was surprised to find that one of the batteries had dropped below the voltage at which the protection circuit was still active and could therefore not be charged in an ordinary charger.
Does this mean that I need to periodically charge the batteries when not in use? If so, how often would be appropriate?
