How to Store Your Lawn and Garden Equipment Batteries
Proper storage can affect the lifespan and functionality of your lawn and garden equipment batteries. We’ve gathered tips on how to best store batteries when it’s time to pack away the lawn gear at the end of the season.
- Connect your battery to a battery tender or trickle charger. This is especially relevant for products that will sit idle for a month at a time. A trickle charger provides a charge only when the voltage in the battery drops so as not to risk over charging.
- Remove your battery and store it indoors or in a climate-controlled environment, especially if your mower or lawn tractor will be spending the off season in freezing temperatures.

The Evolution of Battery Technology: What’s Next for Automotive Applications?
Battery and automotive technology have been intertwined for more than a century. In 1912, as automobiles began to gain mass popularity, Cadillac developed the first starter motor. This innovation eliminated the need for hand cranking and required a reliable power source — a lead-acid battery. By 1920, most new vehicles were equipped with electric starters powered by batteries.
