        "Do not immediately fire the unit on the first use or when the unit has 
been
idle for periods over 3 weeks. Allow several minutes for the power supplyâs
capacitors to form. Once this procedure has been followed at these
times, subsequent use of the power supply requires no waiting period."

        That's from the current manual. I'm not sure when the pack I'm getting 
was 
last used but I figure better safe then sorry. So I'd like to leave it on for 
a while before firing.
