Buying a used light setup
More to the point, does this look like it might be an okay deal?

My main question would be, what do you guys think about the battery life on an older battery, will the age affect it, even if it hasnt been used?
Secondary question, how do you put links into the page?

yes, age will affect batteries.
Looks like a good deal, though. NiMH batteries will probably need a change after around 500 charge cycles or 5 years (something like that - I don't know the exact #s). The years bit depends on whether or not they periodically recharged, b/c it depends on the discharge state.
