[QUOTE="thill, post: 513444, member: 4972"] Congrats! These batteries will probably run your TM longer than three or even four of those group 24 lead batteries. And they have a 10 year average life, so you will save money in the end. You are going to be happy with them. I waited until they hit the right price point, and I'm very, very glad I made the switch. No more worries that my batteries won't last the day fighting heavy current. I recommend you charge and use the battery a couple of times before worrying about voltage. It takes them a couple of cycles to break in. The BMS will take care of everything. You are going to have some excellent run time. Remember to store them at 30-50% charge if you aren't going to use them for awhile. After a few cycles, the voltage will settle down and stay constant. Wow, that must be a nice charger. I got $29 digital chargers from Amazon, and they have been excellent. [/QUOTE]
