Hello Jake,When manufacturing these batteries, there may be a residual charge in the battery. For example, when you get your new Galaxy S5 or your Apple iPhone and you try to turn the phone on for the first time, the chances are the phone will turn on because there are some charge left in the original battery. If you receive a battery with zero charge, please remove all plastic around the battery terminal and start to charge the battery either on your phone or with the included charger.Thank you

Probably not, as even if they were precharged they would immediately start losing it. They werent charged for me, and Im glad they werent

I didn't test if mine were precharged. After removing sticker from top and charging they work great. Super happy with them. Cannot beat the price.

No the batteries normally do not come pre-charged. I charged mine first thing when I got them.

Gee, I'm sorry to hear of your problems. Mine came "ready to go" and I've yet to need to replace the batteries. If you received the wrong batteries for the unit, I suggest you contact Amazon. They are quick to resolve any problems I have ever had. Good luck.

Mine came with a battery and charger. Make sure the item explicitly says they are included.

Plugged in to the battery lead and the the batteries have power, if they are then showing nothing, you either have the negative wrong or they are defective. One or the other. I would send a email and they should send you replacements.

No my box had been previously opened. I would say they are returns. I will register mine tomorrow and if it registers and I have my warranty I will be happy there. Of course, I will not register until I drop the battery in and I am sure it works!

You don't need to charge them, when I received mine, they were already pre-charged

My battery had a minimal charge when I RECEIVED it.I believe we are expected to fully charge it before using.

Sorry to question your capabilities ... have you ensured that the batteries are all in the slots, in the right direction? My original batteries were dead, as sent by the manufacturer. But the new ones tested fully charged, and I was careful to place them in the slots as indicated by the arrows.Give that a shot and see.

Mine came charged already but they have individual batteries in them if they don't work.

Charged? There's no battery in them! ;-) As for lighter fluid, no, it doesn't come pre-filled.

No it isn't charged already, and I'm sorry but I doubt you'll ever be able to buy one that is charged at all. No batteries for devices like these come with a charged battery.

They do not come pre-charged- the rechargeable batteries are built into the headset. They are charged by being placed in the cradle of the charging stand.

No. I tried the same thing. But there is circuitry to prevent overcharging which would damage your batteries that is missing in the circuit.

I comes with a charger, but I didn't receive any batteries. As a side note, I just noticed I had to wrap the batteries (with yellow stickies) to keep the batteries from rattling.

I'm not sure. I kept them just in case new batteries would work but haven't actually put in new batteries.

mine was partially charged when it arrived, but I charged it before using it.

First use NEW batteries. I thought my so-called NEW batteries were fresh and up to charge. They were not! Get a battery tester. Once I had batteries that had a full charge It started without having to do it manually. I do not manually do it any different than the other six answers in any major aspect. I had to start it manually until I realized that I had new batteries that did not have a full charge. Now it works fine without having to resort to manual operation.
