[QUOTE="iggibar, post: 1851361, member: 97843"] It’s hard to answer your question without knowing if it had a charge while it was “stored”. Lithium batteries can be put into storage and keep their battery longevity as long as they have around 70-80% charge when initially put away for storage. You never want to put a battery into storage with a full charge, and a battery that is stored with no charge will cause damage to the battery. It definitely not be good after a year. Even after a year, a battery that was stored with 70% charge should still be good if it is not connected to anything. Sent from my iPhone using Mac-Forums [/QUOTE]
