Hello fellow RAD owners...

I had two batteries fail while sitting still over the last couple months.  I am able to charge them (currently fully charged) but getting 0 volts output.  Fortunately, I am still under warranty and RAD is replacing them (estimated 4 weeks to deliver).  Has anyone else had this issue?  My wife and I use it for casual rides with our daughter around the neighborhood and havent done any long distance rides, so overall mileage is low (less than 2-300 miles on each bike acquired in May 2022)

Neither RAD nor the bike service provided any answers to why the batteries failed.  Any thoughts?  I am concerned that the replacement batteries may suffer the same fate (bad charger?  Leaving batteries in bike while bike is not in use?).
