Hello guys, I am based in South Africa and recently got a 12v 100ah lifepo4 battery on Amazon. Litime and Redodo brand. I used a freight forwarding shipping service company that has a US address to receive the battery in US. The shipping company will now help me forward the shipment of the battery to Africa from US. However the battery will have to be sent to me via ocean shipping and this will take about four months to arrive in Africa. I saw that in the battery manual, it is stated that for long term storage the battery should be charged once every three months. Does this also apply to a new battery that has not yet been used and is still in the box it came with. I want to know if my shipping company can still ship the battery to me even though it will take 4months to get to me. Will the battery be ok even though it will not be used or touched for 4months?will it still be ok for them to ship it and battery will be fine for 4months of no use. This is a brand new battery.
