Some chemistries are pre-charged, you add acid and watch voltage increase.

Instructions say to charge this one first, then measure after the specified time, but only if you aren’t using an automatic charger like mine. That’s when you are supposed to let it sit for another 30 minutes and put it back on charge for another 40% of the original interval if it’s below the specified voltage.

Even if I were using one of those chargers, it hasn’t reached that specified time (3-6 hours at my charger’s 1.5 amps). It’s only been an hour now. I don’t think I’ll get a useful measurement while it’s still on charge anyway.
