Yeah, I noticed that it rose. Not too far above the level, though. I
noticed that was a minor mistake- actually says on the pack case to
check electrolyte level 2 hrs after full charge.
I kinda wanna get maybe like an electric scooter whose SLAs have bitten
the dust (as they are so prone to doing) and Nicad it?

Do NOT ADD WATER before charging them!
We ran into this a LOT with the BB600 NiCd batteries. (BB600 Yahoo group)
Charge first. Even if they look "empty".
THEN if they aren't full, you can add any needed distilled water.

Now the box loose cells are "dry". I don't know why, they don't appear
to have external damage. The valves are in place and intact. Can they
be restored by adding new electrolyte? What mix would I make there to
try? What happens if they "dried out" and the electrolyte turned to
powder, and thus would end up overconcentrated?
These things ARE old- are there any tricks to dealing with them? They
appear to have been stored ok, caps in place and all.
