Charge it up fully after you acidify it. I believe the instructions tell you to do that. Regardless, Batteryuniversity.com says all lead acid batteries should be slowly charged fully before being put into use (even dry charged batteries).

looks like you have fill the acid when you get it...

This was standard with YUASA batteries, as filling upon use is providing a fresh battery...
Here they have completely banned sales/access to containers holding battery acid because of some 'particular imbeciles'...
So all the mandatory pre-filled batteries sitting on the shelves at the dealers, are seriously aged...

Well , thats what add said. I'm not so sure, it's along time since I've seen anyone fill acid.I read about battery codes somewhere else , and it said

• BS batteries are shipped dry (with a bottle) for longer shelf life, while others are pre-sealed at the factory. Will see.

I bought a yuasa battery for the wife's skoda yeti with a 5 year warranty for £82
A yuasa for the pan ( a quarter of the size ) is £80 with a 1 year warranty how does that work ?

Probably economy of scale. If 10 different cars use that battery and they can sell 50x more than the MC battery, production & distribution costs are lower.
