Thoughts on battery storage

I have 2 standard Minelab batteries for my 3000.
As I only come back home to WA for a month every year, is it OK to just store the batteries or should they be regularly charged?

Cheers,
Dennis

Hello Dennis,
My understanding is batteries (camping/caravan & detector) need to be stored fully charged and at least once a month give them a few hours trickle charge.
To simplify this I use the 1st of each month as trickle charge time.

Hope this helps.

Peter
Good luck & safe travels

Thanks for that, Peter.
I will ask my daughter to charge them for me.
