Protecting silicone integrity, maintaining battery life, and ensuring discreet privacy.
Quick Answer: Store each device in its own breathable pouch or lockable hard case. Never let silicone items touch each other directly in storage. Keep away from direct sunlight, and charge batteries to ~70% every 3 months during storage.
1. The Danger of Silicone-on-Silicone Contact
If two silicone products are tossed together into an open drawer and left touching for several months, plasticizers and silicone oils can migrate across surfaces, causing them to permanently fuse or pit.
Always store each device inside its individual velour or satin pouch, or within a modular compartmentalized storage case like the AuGaGa Haven.
2. Lithium Battery Preservation in Storage
Leaving a rechargeable device completely discharged for half a year can trigger low-voltage protection, permanently killing the lithium cell. Charge your devices every 3 to 4 months even if unused, storing them at around 60-80% charge at room temperature.
