BMS_MAINTENANCE // CALENDAR AGING & VAMPIRE DRAIN
LFP Storage ProtocolOff-Season Storage Schedule & Shelf-Life Protocol
Parasitic BMS Drain~2.5%/mo
Continuous microcontroller, Bluetooth LE, and safety circuit baseline draw.
Recommended Top-OffEvery 6 mos
Recharge to 60–80% SoC to prevent voltage sag below low-voltage BMS lockout.
Optimal Storage Range50% – 70% SoC
Storing at 100% accelerates electrolyte oxidation; storing at 0% risks permanent cell loss.
Safe Storage Temp15°C – 25°C
Avoid unconditioned sheds/attics. Freezing storage doubles cell internal resistance.
Long-Term Storage Warning:Leaving this LFP station unplugged in a closet for >12 months without cycling will allow parasite BMS drain to drop individual pouch/prismatic cell voltages below 2.0V, permanently bricking the battery management system. Set a calendar reminder every 6 months.
