Safe indoor battery storage?

(1/4) > >>

Enkidu:
What is the safest way to store batteries in a house? Is there some kind of fireproof storage box suitable for this?

I am considering getting a RadMini Step-Thru 2 and would want to store the batteries indoors as I live near Detroit and it gets very cold in our garage where the bike would be kept.

Veggyhed:
I store both my batteries in my apartment on my bikes. I feel confident doing this unless the battery has been dropped or you've been in a crash .
I would then store my batteries outside for a couple of days and charge them outside and see how they do.

How cold is "very cold"? Better to store them cold than hot.

Oh that is interesting. I wish I know about this before I topped off my Ryobi batteries for my mower.

I would just run the mower for a while to get below 70% State Of Charge (SOC).
