After placing your order and receiving your new battery from us you may will note that they have a good charge in them, but you should still charge it fully before using for the first time, 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, you only need to complete the charge until the charger indicates that its ready, it probably will not take long but it is very important so not a step you should overlook, you might just want to fit them and use, but that would be unwise, unless being fitted in a device as stated above, missing out on charging them first may well shorten overall life expectancy

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, if being used in a portable device then you should make sure that after every use that you put the batteries back on charge, letting them sit in a partially discharged state is not wise, do not attempt to deliberately discharge the batteries, it will not rejuvenate them, in fact the opposite, it will only do them harm and will reduce the life span, there may well be extended periods where the batteries are not being actively used, if so ensure they are charged fully beforehand and then recharged every 4 to 6-weeks but 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

So many codes on batteries are almost the same, it would be prudent to carefully check them before ordering to ensure you are getting the right pack, if in doubt then look at your old one, take a note of the dimensions and anything that is written on the side, this will always be the best information to have, we have also included on the page the dimensions so you can confirm before ordering, the batteries themselves are 6-volt 3.2ah and have a very high lead or Pb content so they are easy to recyclable, more detailed information about recycling lead batteries can be found on a link at the foot of this page
