If you’re not married, discontinue the convo

If you are read up the laws on consummation then we go continue this discourse



Knacking on wedding night is not necessary.


You can go and read all the other books you like.

But take it from me..
Even though it is a good thing to do,, it is not compulsory, and also not necessary.

1. Battery Calibration
2. Firmware and Software Configuration:
3. Battery Longevity:

Lithium-ion batteries have a limited number of charge cycles. By fully charging the battery initially, you help set a baseline for the battery's capacity, potentially contributing to better long-term battery health and longevity.

Personally I don't think it is compulsory. I think it's just a gimmick by the sellers and manufacturers, looking for someone to blame if the device doesn't work well. How can you tell me to charge my power bank for 24hrs before use? Would I be buying a power bank if I had 24hrs electricity?
people wey make am, know pass you. Just obey simple instructions. E always get why.


You can't be wiser than the manufacturer

To put it in a layman language.

It's good to charge your battery first because there's a layer that needs to form to make it last longer.

I've often wondered about that too but Op you can decide not to charge yours.
Please keep us updated on the progress.

Even after first charging before use you also need to be mindful of completely draining your batteries.

If you often completely drain your batteries you are also destroying the battery life and you'll soon need a replacement.

The reason is that the sensors are sometimes programmed to read 100 percent as FULL capacity, but if you start using it at 70% it may send a message to the system that 70% is the optimum, so anytime the battery gets to 70% it will indicate FULL and you won't be getting complete value for money.
That's why the manufacturer will always indicate charge before use.
you are correct. It happened to me with my samsung. It can charge beyound 80%

The device battery has been without charge for a long time during transit and on the shelf of the store.

Battery power has been draining gradually during this period. If you get to use it especially for extended period without first charging the batteries you risk damaging the battery cells thereby reducing the battery life.

Even after first charging before use you also need to be mindful of completely draining your batteries.

If you often completely drain your batteries you are also destroying the battery life and you'll soon need a replacement.
correct....in addition Lithium/Polymer batteries require some sort of breaking in which you just beautifully explained

Some people are just difficult. So what exactly is a big deal if u charge before use?

That’s why you need to knack in the first date to diffuse the necessity of the wedding night knack

It’s so the electrons work to their full capacity. The devices have stayed idle for months if not a year plus. Charging them excites the electrons so they work optimally. This is like asking why humans stretch when waking up rather than jumping into daily activities.

Only for Nickel Cadmium or older battery technology.

Lithium Ion batteries don't need that.

Just don't let your batteries drain down to zero all the time.

Not necessary any more, it's was when battery were built with ions back then that's is compulsory to charge it full before use just to complete the battery cycle. but now they were now built with lithium so there is not need to charge it before you start using them.

Was it charged up to the 70% from the factory or it's at that level by default?

Some will even say it is not recommended to charge your brand new phone with a generator. Men go begin do fasting and prayer make PHCN restore light, after buying a new phone 😆

I make sure I use the battery till it is ZERO then charge it with stable electricity (not gen) from Zero to 100.
Re: Why Is It Compulsory To Charge Phone & Power Bank First Before Using Them? by NinjaMetahuman: 3:03pm On Jan 16
Battery technology has improved greatly.

That is not necessary anymore.
