Ipurchased 3 of this batteries. I fully charged them before first use. After use at which stage I should place the hand set back to recharge them ?

I have left the unit off for 14 days with no problems. I have a voice mail indicator on my phone which lights up with an unheard voice mail. This sometimes shortened the time off the charger by 1 day.

Page 8 of the manual states, "Recharge before first use, immediately after each use, or at least once a month if not in frequent use. Failure to do this may reduce the battery life dramatically."

All I remember now is that the batteries were supposed to be precharged. Mine were dead when I got them. I loaded them and used them in my hand wash dispenser. The light on the dispenser showed still red instead of changing to green. Will not more buy rechargeable batteries.

Remove and re- charge. We simply used replaceable alkaline batteries in our circumstances. Did not use rechargeable batteries.

I had a bad battery. Make sure you charge the battery correctly. These are balance battery.

After you do the initial breakin procedure, you're technically supposed to use it until it's fully drained then charge it. I like to get my cake and eat it too, so my opinion is that it sucks to do that, so I charge it whenever I want to so that I can guarantee I have a full battery to start with when I need it. I've been doing that for the last 2 years and the battery life is probably still about 80-90% of what it was when I first got it. I think it's well worth it. It's cheap, so when I feel like it's no longer able to hold a capacity that I'm happy with, scrape it and buy a new one.

The batteries are in a tray or cartridge. The whole cartridge comes out and then you take the batteries out of the tray and reinsert the new ones. Then you put the tray back in. They do it that way to make sure you put the batteries back in facing the right way. The tray fits snugly and can be hard to get out the first time.

Most likely you have to charge the new battery first before you can use it. These type of rechargeable slowly discharge themselves even if it is not used. The fully charged battery usually depletes in several months. The new battery may or may not have some charge left, depending how long it has been on the shelf. Also, it is recommended to fully charge the new battery before the first use.

Hi, Ideally, lithium batteries should be charged at an early stage. 5hrs attched to the PC or a compatible wall charger gives the full 5 hrs play time. Many thanks.

With these type batteries, you will want to use them until they are fully dead before charging to get the most out of them. I would not store it on the charger it self. Any other way will be fine.

We leave them on a little while longer without noticing any harm - and nothing in the packaging of any charger I've had suggests you have to get the batteries off immediately. I wouldn't store my batteries there :) But all that happens is the light for the charged battery goes solid and the others continue charging if needed.

I usually charge it overnight, then turn it the opposite way in the charger until I need to use it. These batteries hold a charge a very long time. Depending on how long I use it on a given day determines if I charge it that day or not. If I use it for just a couple of screws or drill o few holes, then I wont bother charging it that day. If I use it a lot in one day then I will usually charge it overnight and then the next day turn it backwards in the charger. I know it says they won't overcharge but you don't need to put an extra charge cycle on the battery if it's not necessary. I hope this helps.

To have them recharged, you must insert batteries in pairs and use all 4 positions. Try it and let me know if it works, there is too much time I don't use mine, so that I am not sure about it, but I remember I have had the same doubt.

I am not sure so I choose to remove the battery after it reaches full charge. Maybe someone with Dewalt, especially a battery expert can answer this for us???

Each phone hand set comes with a set of Hi-MH rechargeable batteries that self charge while in each respective phone cradle. After you use the phone, it will sell charge so it is always ready for use.
