I don’t have contact with the manufacturer, I wanted to know if there is any study showing which voltages in Li-Po batteries are good for storage
Hi gamer
If you enter the type or model (which should be printed somewhere on the battery) into the search bar on your browser you should be able to find some sort of data sheet and other information there somewhere.
Also if you enter “storing LiPo batteries” into the same search bar you will get lots of info on that subject. I just had a quick look and it seems to be recommended at 3.8V per cell. As yours is a nominal 3.7V it would be treated as 1 cell and 3.8V would be the magic number. There is also discussion on how to get a battery to that point.
As your battery is reading 3.75V I personally would think this would be OK. I stress that this is only my opinion and others may differ. It is ultimately your choice.

- What is the minimum voltage and what is the maximum voltage allowed for Li-Po and Li-ion battery storage? Does any study verify this?
- If I store the Li-Po battery at 3.75v, how many months do I need to recharge it before self-discharge destroys the battery? Here at home the temperature is 35C
In terms of storage voltage, it’s mostly about ensureing your battery is in the least strained state as it can be. Gneral guide is between 60-70% capacity which gets you your 3.8v/cell figure. There’s lot of very detailed informtion out there availabe on this. This is a very detailed guide for how MIT handles lithium battery safety
As for your second question, It may be worth running an experiement yourself.
Just check the voltage of the battery daily and record the results and find out how many days it would take to get to dangerous levels.

You have not seen fit to respond or clarify exactly what you mean. If you leave things unclear as you have done you could not expect any sort of definite reply.
I don’t think too many people on this Forum COULD or would be prepared to give you a DEFINITE answer anyway. I wouldn’t in case you succeeded in doing some damage to person or material as a result of any recommendations I made.
I checked the link regarding your battery and found this.
“easy installation: The battery powered battery is equipped with an instruction manual which allows you to quick and easy installation,”
and
“Please mind potential fire risk and strictly follow the instruction manual for charging and storage”
I am assuming you have possession of this “instruction manual”
If so I suggest you read it.
If you haven’t I suggest you get it.
Or as Aaron suggested

I would suggest you read the link Aaron posted above from start to finish.
MIT is a world class authority on just about anything. An amazing research institution.
If you don’t believe what they say what hope is there for us mere mortals.
