    How to store dry batteries?
    • Generally, there is self-discharge inside the battery, which is commonly known as "power leakage". The storage time and storage environment of the dry battery, especially the temperature, have a greater impact on it. Generally, the longer the storage time and the higher the temperature, the more the power leaks. The higher the temperature and the greater the humidity, which will make the battery's conductive contacts rusty and not easy to use, and also increase the battery's power leakage, so the battery storage conditions are as follows:
      (1) The battery storage area should be clean, cool and ventilated.
      (2) The temperature should be between 10~30℃, generally should not exceed 40℃. The relative humidity should generally not exceed 65%.
      (3) The storage time is not easy to be too long, and the storage should be neatly arranged, and the positive and negative electrodes should not be connected, which may cause a short circuit of the battery.
