So, Bosch recommend that you leave a battery with ideally 3 bars/60% charge if you are not going to be using it as depleted and fully charged are bad for the battery. That's fine if you put it in winter storage and check it, but in my situation I might go out just at the weekend through the winter (I did 16km off road tonight and it was a bit ropey...) but then this weekend is due for -5c so I'm not likely to go out due to ice/battery life/ wind chill so depending on what the weather does should I just charge the battery after use to 3 bars, and if I decide to go out then charge it fully prior to use if I get favourable temps colliding with my days off?? That way it stays in optimum charge while not in use( would these "partial charges" all count on a diagnostics as full charges??) ??
When I first introduced myself on here I was advised to keep the battery charged up and assume the poster meant fully....but this seems bad advice.
There really should be a booklet issued with Bosch equipped bikes to inform you of all this as sometimes it's like detective work finding stuff online....!
