Sleep mode is to protect the battery. <!-- In sleep mode, the battery can last over a year. In the awake mode, it is closer to 4-6 months (depending on the age and state of charge when put away). --> | |||
Sleep mode is the lowest current draw of the integrated circuits (ICs) in the battery pack. If the ICs were left unchecked, eventually they would drain the cells below their safety threshold. When the cells are allowed to discharge below a certain level, they become susceptible to dendritic growths within the cells. This can lead to catastrophic failures of the cells. The battery fails and is non-recoverable. | Sleep mode is the lowest current draw of the integrated circuits (ICs) in the battery pack.
