Li-ion battery reviver in SoCal?
I just picked up a pristine 2010 i2 with only 41 miles on it. The guy told me it was left uncharging for too long and now shows a red light on the charger. The other battery is fine.
I put one of my other i2's batteries on it, and it runs fine and charges fine. Is there someone in SoCal who has a battery reviver that I could try before I get a new battery? This i2 was barely used, so I'm thinking maybe the battery can be saved. Anyone? -infinitronics |

MTOBATTERY,
But, if it is not successful in reviving the battery, i'm still out the $150+, right? The drained battery is currently measuring about 10.5v. Any idea on the likelihood of this battery being revived? -infinitronics |

Correct, the rental fees are non-refundable. 10.5V is not an abnormal number for us to see in a battery that is overdischarged. How old is the battery? How strong was it before it was left unplugged? If you would like to discuss on the phone I will be in the office today 717-751-2705.

I was able to borrow a reviver from a segway owner who lives near me.
Unfortunately, the battery has indeed been sitting discharged for too long, and is bad. Thanks for all the help and suggestions. Much appreciated! -i |

I have a battery reviver in Los Angeles
If anyone is looking to revive a battery in the Los Angeles area I have one of the Australian ones that I got from 'dgbint'. It worked flawlessly on mine. You can reach me at 310-770-6011. Thanks, Dennis.
