When I first unboxed mine it had some charge in it when I stuck it on charge. It was on charge for around 2 or 3 hours and when I checked it the battery said 100% but the red light was still on! I unplugged it and it ran for nearly 5 hours before needing another charge...... I dont understand the whole 10 hours first charge thing......Surely these batteries will have been cycled prior to being bought and stuck in these devices?? I remember reading about cycling of batteries a while back and it said that as long as you cycle the battery (fully charge then drain it fully without using it) every couple of months or so the cells will stay active for a longer period of time!That said, I have had batteries fail within a few months before now, so who knows........I guess it is better to be safe than sorry?
