Over time, the lithium-ion cells start to wear down through repeated charge cycles, a process called capacity fading. The battery will need replaced once capacity fades past a certain level.<\/p>\n<p>Watch for these telltale signs that indicate it could be time to replace your hoverboard&#8217;s battery:<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Decreased_Range_Between_Charges\"><\/span>1. Decreased Range Between Charges<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>If your fully charged hoverboard can&#8217;t travel as far as it used to or runs out of juice more quickly, the battery is losing capacity. Most hoverboard batteries allow anywhere from 5 to 15 miles per charge when new. Once range drops 50% or more, it\u2019s a sign of a worn battery.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Longer_Charge_Times\"><\/span>2. Longer Charge Times<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>It takes longer to fully recharge a battery as it ages. If charging your hoverboard seems to take double the normal time or never fully completes, the battery needs replacing.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Failure_to_Hold_a_Charge\"><\/span>3. Failure to Hold a Charge<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>You fully charge the battery overnight, unplug it in the morning, and the battery dies in under an hour. If the battery discharges very rapidly and won&#8217;t hold a charge, its ability to store energy has been depleted.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Frequent_Overheating\"><\/span>4. Frequent Overheating<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Excessive heat is damaging to batteries. If you notice your hoverboard battery feels hot to the touch frequently even when not charging, or you get warnings about overheating, the battery may be wearing out.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Swollen_Battery_Casing\"><\/span>5. Swollen Battery Casing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>If the plastic casing around the battery pack appears swollen or warped, that signals the lithium-ion cells have become unstable. This condition requires immediate battery replacement as it poses a fire risk. Never charge or use a hoverboard with a swollen battery.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Error_Codes_Related_to_the_Battery\"><\/span>6.
