Do Lithium Batteries Expire If Not Used? Lithium batteries don't necessarily expire, but they do experience a small amount of energy depletion when left sitting. Specifically, when left in the right conditions, our LiFePO4 batteries experience a 2-3% depletion each month.
A flooded battery lifespan is about three to five years, or long enough to start the engine around 30,000 times. Sealed Lead-Acid Battery Lifespan. Like flooded batteries, sealed lead-acid batteries last about 3 to 5 years, although sealed deep cycle batteries may last longer, about six years.
Contrarily to some received ideas, Li-ion batteries don't have a memory. They don't need regular full discharge and charge cycles to prolong life. It's actually the contrary: the smaller the discharge (low DoD), the longer the battery will last, the more cycles it will be able to do.
Proper and regular use of battery chargers can therefore increase the reliability and the service life of the battery. Even though there is no risk of overcharging with the use of a high quality charger, the battery should not remain connected to the charger for more than 24 hours.
