Battery swelling, also known as battery bloating, is a condition where a battery physically expands or bulges due to internal pressure. This can occur for several reasons and poses potential risks. To extend the life of your batteries and reduce the risk of battery swelling, you can follow these tips:
1. Avoid Overcharging.
It’s not recommended to leave your devices plugged in for extended periods once they are fully charged. Overcharging can cause the battery to heat up and potentially swell.
2. Monitor Temperature.
Keep your cameras and batteries in a cool, dry place. Extreme temperatures, both hot and cold, can damage batteries and cause them to swell. Avoid leaving devices in direct sunlight.
3. Use the original charger.
Use chargers that came with the package. Using incompatible chargers can lead to overcharging or incorrect voltage, damaging the battery.
4. Regularly Check for Damage.
Inspect your batteries for any signs of damage, such as leaks or bulging. If you notice any issues, replace the battery immediately.
5. Store Batteries Properly.
If you're not using a battery for an extended period, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Partially charge the battery before storing it to help maintain its health.
6. Replace Old Batteries:
Over time, batteries degrade and become less efficient. Replace your batteries periodically to ensure they are functioning optimally and to prevent potential issues like swelling.
