Question:

Our Stryker batteries keep losing charge while they are on the shelf.  Is there a shelf life that we should be adhering to?

Answer:

Always refer to manufacturer IFU's, but depending on the system that you are using, shelf life is 7-30 days on a fully charged battery.  You will need to create an outdate policy for tracking these and making sure they are brought down for re-charging regularly.
