Do i have to add battery acid and charge before use? If so what kind of battery charger do I need?

It comes half charged and u don't need to add any acid at all ..u can use a regular 12v battery charger it stays charged for about I say a week straight without having to recharge on half way but if u don't use it for say a month or so it will be drained and after u charge it up it'll stay up to 12.6-8 v

No, the Battery Tender batteries are actually a LiFePO4 battery. They do not use a gel or conventional lead-acid. They come precharged and ready to go. They do however require a special lithium charger. Because lithium batteries have multiple cells within them, they require a charger that has a balancer built in to ensure that all the cells charge equally. The only lithium batteries that do not require a special charger are the WPS Featherweight batteries, and a new brand coming out called EarthX I think. Let me know if you have any questions.

You do not add acid to this sealed battery. Any charger except one with a desulphinator option will work.

You do not need to add battery acid. The instructions say it comes at a 70 percent charge. I use a trickle charger that charges at 3A and it arrived at 95 percent charged.

No acid, its a gel battery. It comes with 70% charge. I put it in and ran the bike a while to top it off.

No it's lithium iron. No need to add anything. You will need their specific charger though.

No this is a sealed non-acid battery. .. you can charge w regular charger but DON'T OVER CHARGE IT...it states the charge in the paper work.. I left it on my charger a half hour or so n it was just a touch over max charge allowed. ..

There was a battery charger included with my laptop. I did have to ask for a new battery not long after my purchase because it stopped holding a charge.

I received the battery without any acid. The online price for acid was around $12.00. I went to my local auto parts supply, and asked for battery acid for an atv battery. The cost for me was about $5.00. If one doesn't have it another might.. When I filled the acid, per instructions,it seemed a bit low , but added distilled water, after the battery absorbed all it could, to the correct level. I then charged it up with a 2amp or lower charger.The battery is a good battery and has performed very well.. Good luck Brian A

This might not be a direct answer but I bought a separate charger for this battery because I read about many people complaining how the battery life had gotten shorter as a result of using lead acid chargers.

I used my Battery Tender brand charger (made for lead-acid types) to charge this battery when I first received it. Based on the indicator lights and the charged battery, it appeared that all worked well together.

Batteries are pre-charged at the factory, but because all batteries lose some charge during storage, you should always fully charge batteries before relying on them. Most batteries come with instructions for charging before use.

No. You have to get 2 quarts of battery acid at the auto parts store and fill it up. Then you have to leave the caps off and trickle charge it at 1amp for about 10 hours then it is ready to use.

I think it comes sufficiently charged. I do not recall having to do anything special. I have regular battery charger only, which should work for the battery.

A separate battery charger (included with the camera) is required. You must take the battery out of the camera to charge it. Hence, you should have two (or more) batteries. I really prefer disposable batteries.

It depends largely. There are instructions in the box on how to care for the battery, but...basically it has to be charged to aat least 12.6 volts. It would not hurt to charge it fully, that's what I did even though mine read 12.8. As for chargers, use a charger capable of charging an agm battery. I charged mine at 15 amps bit over read lower is better. Not sure, but mine is going strong as has for The 3 months I've owned it

I have used mine a lot and just recharge it the charger. You can buy 3.6 v Lithium-ion batteries so if your batteries are not recharging I would open it to see which battery you need.

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

No, you have to get the acid and add it to the battery after receiveing it.

You have to replace the battery you want to charge it. And also you need to use the battery charger. I bought ot separately

Regular 6 or 7 cell battery (cant remember) and charger. Get seperate lipo batteries and better charger if u dont want to wait 8 hrs to charge a battery.

Even the company website doesn't list the amps used. A standard ac/dc adapter should work fine to charge the battery. You can also run it on the charging cord, but it will not charge the battery while doing so
