Even though the batteries you receive from us after placing your order will be almost fully charged you should still complete a full charge before first use, if it's going into a device that is always connected to the mains and has its own charging circuit like a battery backup for monitoring or alarm system then you can miss this step as it will do it for you, there should be no need for many hours, it will probably not take very long at all as its almost fully charged already, just until your charger indicates they are ready, this will of course depend on the charger capabilities, while you may well be tempted just to fit without charging if it's going in a portable device its worth completing the charge first as it may well extend the life of them
If being used in a portable device it may well take a number of charges and alternating use in your equipment for the battery to condition and be able to take a full capacity charge, this is quite normal, letting your new batteries sit in a discharged state, even partially is not a good idea, so if being used in a portable device as soon as you have used them put them back on charge, we have heard of people trying to extend battery life by running them all the way down, do not attempt this with this kind of technology, fully discharging your new batteries will only reduce the overall life span and they will need changing earlier, this will cost you money in the long run, if there are extended periods where you are not using the batteries you should remember to recharge every four weeks and never put them away discharged, even partially, do not leave on the charger for more than 24-hours at a time
The battery type is AGM which is short for absorbed glass mat construction, they are also valve regulated, to the end user this would mean they can be used around the home or in portable devices without the fear of any leakage, they will never need any maintenance, except of course charging, no need to top up fluids, they are sealed, the acid is held within a glass matting, very tough can withstand heat and the cold to the extreme and highly reliable
We have provided the information here purely as a guide, it would be wise to check the code carefully as so many of them are pretty similar so it's easy to make a mistake, you will also find we have listed the relevant dimensions so you can make sure you are ordering the correct one, looking at your old power pack and taking note of the dimensions and anything that may be printed on the side is probably the best thing to do, this 6-volt 3.2-amp hour uses a very high content of lead or PB in its manufacture, this is very easy to recycle so it can further be used in another product, more information on this process can be found on our recycle page link at the foot of this one
