I can charge them anytime. I was going by the notes found here with regards to breaking batteries in. If I read correctly in the above link (post #3 by SUNOCO), it was saying a best practice was to go down to roughly 70-75% SOC then a full charge cycle for the first 10-20 cycles. If this is wrong, please let me know. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I really want them to live long and prosper.lol
