In order to prolong the life of your BRANDT UMO36C replacement battery please read the following:
Your BRANDT UMO36C battery is charged during production in order to test it. Your BRANDT UMO36C rechargeable battery will discharge between the end of the production and the moment you receive it. That is why your BRANDT UMO36C battery will have to be charged before you use it. You can use your existing charger or an external charger this will optimize charging of your BRANDT UMO36C battery and prolong the life of your camera power supply.
Your BRANDT UMO36C rechargeable battery discharges slowly and progressively when not in use. The self discharge rate is about 1% of the battery's capacity per day at room temperature. The higher the temperature, the faster your UMO36C battery will discharge. If you intend to leave your BRANDT UMO36C battery for a prolonged period without use then a service charge is recommended from time to time, taking in to account the self discharge rate and time between using your BRANDT UMO36C battery.

Our UMO36C batteries have a two year warranty, represent excellent value and meet or exceed the original specifications. We also offer free delivery on all our products including the UMO36C battery.
