# Storage/Transportation Guidelines

## Store LiPo batteries at room temperature.

The optimal temperature is between 40 and 80 degrees F for best results. If possible store your batteries in a fireproof container at nominal voltage (3.7v-3.9v) per cell when not in use for extended periods of time. 

## Avoid direct sunlight for long periods.

Do not expose battery packs to direct sunlight (heat) for extended periods. 

## Avoid temperatures greater than 150 degrees F

Do not store LiPo batteries at more than 150 degrees F when transporting or temporarily storing in a vehicle.
