Your battery pack is built with sealed lead acid batteries (SLA), which can be charged and discharged up to about 200 times. But you must do some things in order to get the maximum life out of your SLA battery pack: ALWAYS, we repeat - ALWAYS charge your batteries up IMMEDIATELY after EVERY use! Sealed lead acid batteries hate to be left discharged, even for only a few hours, so plug your battery pack into the smart charger immediately after every use. Also, try not to run your batteries completely dead, for this will diminish their life cycle.
