    Hey Guys,

    This is just for future potential SZ3 buyers. Just want to let you know that the battery is charged to 40% straight out of the box.

    ..which makes sense. According to most battery information sources on the internet, Li-ion batteries maintain their charges/lifetimes best when stored at a 40% charge. :)
