Hi all,

I've had two replacement batteries arrive today for my Bosch 24v SDS drill.

The batteries were £80 a piece so I want to ensure maximum life and performance from them.

Could somebody give a run down of the best way to condition, store and treat them.

They are brand new and I am yet to put them in a charger or the drill. I find they tend to come 1/2 charged and I am never sure if I should run them flat or charge them first?

Many thanks.
