If the battery gets to about 10% of capacity, a beeping tone will sound when any of the control buttons are pressed, indicating that the power Style in Motion® battery needs to be recharged immediately.
Please note that for optimal battery life, the battery should not be used to its capacity, or used until the power Style in Motion® product stops working. It is recommended that the battery be charged once per month if it is not going to be used for an extended period of time.
Based on a fully charged battery. Cycle count will depend on users weight. Battery charge will degrade over the life of the battery. Using USB port while operating on battery is not recommended. (will reduce battery life)
