My guess is it still has plenty of charge left, does it really matter as far as the maintanence of the battery is concerned. Thanks
Probably not. However, I always start with a full charge on my batteries to insure that there isn't any darkness on the way home. That's bad.

For more info then you'll ever need...but it's good stuff anyway...go to http://www.buchmann.ca/. There's lots and lots of good information to keep you from killing your battery prematurely (you're gonna kill it anyway but why hurry the process )
