The charging time depends on the charger and battery that you use. For example, the charging time for the BMC-2 battery with the ACP-8U charger is about 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Battery notes

Use the following guidelines to obtain the best performance from your battery:

With your phone turned off, charge your new battery for three hours before its first use. Use the battery until it is fully discharged. Repeat this procedure twice for a total of three charging cycles.

Battery operation time may be less than the estimated times during the first charges. This condition is normal.

You can use your phone while the battery is charging. However, if the battery is completely empty, it may need to recharge a few minutes before you can make or receive calls or the battery indicator appears.

After the first charge, you can make and receive calls during the charging cycle, but the calls interrupt the charge. When the phone call ends, the charge will resume.
