[QUOTE="becool773, post: 2522615, member: 82788"] Thank you. So, 15% discharge seems ok in this 40ish degrees, as of now, weather? You said to charge it upto 60% and leave, why 60%? Why not 80% or 100%? What does calibration of a battery exactly do? And how to rightly calibrate a battery? When you said stay good for a month, you mean no discharge at all?
