    I have two batteries, but don’t use them frequently enough to warrant daily swapping. I would like something that I can keep the spare battery in when not in use. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

    Go to www.BatteryUniversity.com
    I think they said the best way to keep is in 40% charge and in a cool place (the battery should not freeze)

    I have a closet that sits right off of the AC venting that's in the wall beside it (no vents) and it stays rather cool in there so I store it there. Now that I'm back in school it's charged to 100% and in my bag, but when not in use, it's sitting around 40% in the closet.
