Ideally, you should charge it every month - these batteries like to stay somewhat active. Charging every three months is doable if you must, but it might take a bit longer to fully charge when you're ready to use it again.

Keep in mind, super long storage without any use can shorten the battery's lifespan overall. It's best to charge it to roughly 50% or 60% before storage and keep it in a cool, dry spot.

Hi! We import majority of Lithium-ion Forklifts, and once the equipment is dispatched from the factory, it is idle for about 2-3 months (sea transportation and custom clearance). We have seen the battery percentage fall down to about 97% only. I would recommend putting the equipment in charge once every 3 months.
