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, the only time you do not need to do this is if it's going into something with its own always connected power supply and charging circuit, for example a alarm system, as this will do the job of charging for you, the charger will have LED lights which will indicate whether it is still charging or not, you only need to charge them until they are ready, probably not very long at all, do not be impatient, wait until this first charge has completed before contemplating using the equipment, it will possibly contribute to overall battery life
It's not always apparent but if you are using the battery in device that requires user action for the charging of it that it may take up to ten charges combined with use in your equipment before a full capacity charge can be achieved, this is just a normal part of the conditioning process, if being used in a portable piece of equipment then as soon as you after each use put them back on charge, do not allow them to sit in a discharged state, you cannot rejuvenate this kind of battery by deliberately running them down, going out of your way to fully discharge the batteries will reduce their life span, so do not do it, 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
These 6-volt batteries are sealed lead valve regulated or VRLA and further benefit from using AGM technology, this means they will not spill so can be used indoors or in portable equipment without fear of leakage, capable of deep cycling as would be essential in this type of application, they are not hazardous
You can ensure that you order the right battery by carefully checking the information, a lot of them are very similar so it can be easy to make a mistake, if in doubt check the old battery, the dimensions and anything written on the side of them, we have included the physical size so you can double check, 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
