Storage Suggestions (4 Months)

[EvilAlchemist]

Have six iPads I need to store for 4 months until my group needs them again. I have all the batteries charged to 100% and have the iPads turned off.

Any other suggestions for safe storage such as anti static bags or any other types of protection for them during this time period?

Battery gurus usually recommend to store LI-ion batteries at around 40-50% charge if it's going to be long term; helps to avoid capacity loss. Other than that, I would say just keep 'em somewhere clean, dry, and free of extreme temps. And a lock, definitely lock them up so they don't grow legs.

More or less agree with the above. The critical thing for long term storage (other than theft) is battery percentage. Generally 50% ish, plus or minus, is where you want to be.
