When your order is delivered to you your new batteries will be almost fully charged, but regardless of this you should still complete a charge before first use, if it's going into a device that is constantly connected to the mains like a UPS system then you can miss this step out as it will do it automatically for you, the period of this initial charge need only be until the charger indicates its finished, probably not very long at all, while you may well be tempted just to use them without charging first, if it's going in a portable device or mobility electric vehicle it would be unwise to miss this out
Unless you are a very extended user you will probably not even notice that it can take a number of charges and use in your equipment before a full capacity charge is achieved, this is all part of the conditioning process and quite normal, recharge after each use, do not let them sit in a partially discharged state for any longer than absolutely necessary, do not attempt to discharge the batteries fully, this will defiantly not extend the life of them, quite the contrary, with this type of technology it will only reduce life span quite drastically so cost you money in the long run, if not using them make sure they are charged before any period of storage then recharge every 4 to 6-weeks but do not leave on the charger for more than 24-hours at a time
These 12-volt batteries are very resilient and can be mounted on the side without any issues so suitable for use in portable devices, deep cycle capable which of course is essential in electric powered devices, no leaking, which means they can be used indoors or medical environments, they are the recommended VRLA type and benefit from AGM technology they are not-hazardous so safe
