The battery came in, with a separate pack of electrolyte. I filled the electrolyte and it turns out I need to charge the battery. It says I need to wait for 1-2 hours before charging it - but I don't even have a charger. What if its a couple days before I charge it, will it be ok?

Do what the instructions that came with the battery say - if they want it sealed....then seal it.

And you will need to charge the battery with a 1.5 - 2 amp charger before you put the battery in service.  If you and your friends/family don't have one - time to go to get one!

I don't know?

My only experience with not doing what I was told..ended up with a very short battery life.  I put in the acid....and I didn't wait a couple hours and put the 1.5 amp charger  as soon as I was done adding the acid (I should have read the directions better).  The battery only lasted 2 weeks.

I took the battery back to the dealer for a warranty replacement (1 year warranty), and I did exactly what the direction said on the next battery....and it worked fine.
