2.5 Battery

Your cuboGo comes with a sealed pack of high performance NiMH cells. These cells have no memory effect, however, when used for the first time or after a longer period of non-use it may take up to 5 full charge/discharge cycles until they reach its full capacity. In any case, please allow 24 hours charging time for the first use. Though we deliver every cuboGo with a pack of high performance cells, the lifetime of these cells might be shorter than the lifetime of your radio. In this case please refer to your authorized dealer. Never try to open or exchange the pack yourself!
