Lithium batteries require little maintenance. Simply remove after a season and store in a cool place, out of direct sunlight. Ensure it is left at a minimum of 50% charge. It is not a requirement out of season to keep the battery on charge.
Unlike other batteries Lithium (Li-on) batteries can re-charge hundreds of times and remain stable.
