I've used new batteries that had gone a month or more since being charged
and did not notice any difference. I'm sure they did not last as long as
freshly charged ones, but the difference was not pronounced.
I have several sets of older batteries though that really die down quickly
after
I have 4 or 5 sets of NiMh batteries that I use in my *ist D and AF360
flash. My question is, how often should they be recharged if not used for
awhile?

periods? I don't think so - do they come in a charged
state when you buy them? If not then storing them discharged onviously
doesn't do any harm.

I think the rule I have seen batted around is that they lose 1% per day.
This is where I get somewhat discombobulated. At 1% a day, is that 1% of
total charge or 1% or remaining charge? If it's 1% of remaining charge,
when they get down to 50% they would only be losing 0.5% of the total
