They say they come pre-charged but mine were at about 50%. Is this normal?

It would seem so - mine arrived barely "alive" - they've worked great since I charged them - I had 2 seperate orders with both AA & AAA and all had to be charged

Yes it's normal.. To get the most use, fully discharge and re charge 4-5 times. You will see a longer lasting battery

I am wondering this as well, as Amazon is said to be the supplier on my pre-order, but now they are nowhere to be found for someone pre-ordering. Mine is at 69.99 as well.

Yeah man I noticed that too but not consistently. So sometimes it was like 95%. I just checked it and now it is at 99%. I don't know but I suspect a software feedback problem where it "thinks" it is isn't charged. I just can't imagine that many people have batteries that physically "refuse" to be charged to 100 percent, that'd just be too weird. Still, I love this machine. Did you have any other problems? So far mine has worked like a dream.

Usually this kind of batteries come charged with 40% or less, I think this was the case but I'm not certain

The one I received came with about a 75% charge. There was a thin film plastic laid over the contacts when I received it. Also the folks at Laza are very very helpful and will gladly answer any questions you may have about their product line. They are really proud of their offerings and want to be sure you are happy with their products.

Please keep us posted. Did they charge your credit card at the time you ordered or when they shipped it?

When I got mine, they were fully charged. If yours are not, they may be defective or may be very old and might have lost some of the charge.

No. I don't think that is normal. I just received mine and I do not have the problem. Sorry.

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

No, it's not normal, you should send it back, mine has always charged to 100% in the 3 months that I been using it.

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

I did not have a problem. I ordered 1 and received 1 battery from ATC cost $3.80 with free shipping. I have ordered from eForCity in the past without any problem. I am sure if you notify them they will correct it.......David

They come with a partial charge, they will need to be charged for about 2 hours to get a full charge.

Hi. I started charging mine as soon as I unboxed it. It had some charge to it but not 100%. So far mine is ok but I hope both of us didn't get a refurbished product. Maybe someone else will reply too.

This happens a lot on amazon...so you have to be careful. It means another dealer is probably selling the 4 pack at a higher cost. Once I questioned a dealer about this type of pricing, and they told me that because they ship "for free" they just add the cost into the product cost. Always be careful!

No that is not normal. I have never run into that happening to any of the ones that I have bought.
