Hello Spud,
Jason's information is pretty close. We rate the cells at 5% cpacity loss per month. You could easily charge the battery on a Monday and use it on a Saturday. The lost capacity would be negligible. You could leave a pack all winter and it would still perform fairly well right out of the closet.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
