    Should new 18650 be charged before first usage?

    Thank you TooManyGizmos and 45/70 for the great and thorough info about the new 18650's. I was also suspicious about the almost fully charged batts. I'll need to contact the seller to see if he did a courtesy charge before mailing to me. I got them from LarryDFW on an LED forum site.

    Should new 18650 be charged before first usage?

    I have two brand new Panasonic 2400mAh 18650's that measure 4.16 and 4.17 volts. Should they initially be used as-is untill they need recharging, or should I top them off with a charge before their first use? I am trying to maximize battery charge cycle life. Thank you for any recommendations.
