I received some sanyo eneloop batteries in the mail this week. The insert information says that the batteries are pre-charged and good to go right out of the package up to one year from the manufacturing date that *should* be stamped on the package. I see where the date stamp should be, but can't read it. I think it says 10/07 but can't be sure.
My question is, should I try charging these new batteries before I use them? Is there any harm to charge them before I've used them through a whole cycle? I will be using them in my 540 flash for the fashion shoot tomorrow night.

So please, if you use these eneloop batteries can you give me some advice? I obviously won't have time to run them until they need charging before tomorrow night.
thanks for your help!
