How long can a spare IMA battery be stored?

A simple "It was answered in post 2" would have been sufficient.

I didn't get that it would have been from reading your post.

It wouldn't have answered about the charge plug.

It seemed to me that the previous answer in post 2 was not adequate for some reason even for the storage time ... otherwise you would not have claimed the answer had not been provided ... I offered my own additional generic answer and explained just a little bit about what might be needed in order to more precisely quantify it beyond just generic answers ( if you were looking for something more specific ).

If I gave too much detail ... that's something I sometimes do ... As it was ... What I posted was the short 'highlights' if you like ... for what I had first considered posting... which would have been much much longer and much more detailed... judging exactly how much or how little detail to include is not one of my strengths.

For balancing my battery I bought on eBay a hoefer ps 250 power supply, up to 2.5 amps, up to 250 volts. They also have an sx 250 unit, only goes up to 200 ma. Both can current limit or voltage limit.

I set mine for around 178 volts, 350 ma to balance the cells. I typically charge at about 1 amp until the batty is around 100%, then drop the current limit to 350 ma.
