Answer :
NiMH rechargeable batteries - like any rechargeable battery - will self-discharge if left unused. Generally, within 30 to 60 days, batteries will become almost completely drained. When using them, you will need to first recharge them, after extended storage.  You may need to cycle them several times just as you would for their first time use or even condition the  rechargeable batteries several times to regain normal performance. Conditioning can be performed using the conditioning feature on battery chargers such as the Maha PowerEx MH-C204F or the NEW MH-C204W which actually can often jolt unused rechargeable batteries back to life..
