From what I read my battery is good, not perfect.

    ya, would be surprising if a 17 year old battery was perfect

    It is hard to make a judgment based off one moment in time as shown in that image. Having said, that moment in time shows nothing of any concern.

    Shows nothing of concern? Sure it does. Other than block 2 IR, why in the world is the battery at 241 volts and the SOC 80%? That battery was just significantly force charged or similar, which can easily hide a lot of problems. A Gen 2 WILL NOT charge itself to 80% SOC willingly. These are the things I look at when I go check out a car that's for sale. Things that don't make sense.....little red flags....if I pulled this up on techstream when checking out a car, I would immediately think the seller is trying to hide something. Kind of like seeing that codes were reset an hour before I arrived to look at the car.

    Thanks, interesting comment, I cannot remember exactly when I took this screen shot, we traveled to New Mexico and overall the Prius did well except going over a 7900 foot pass where the battery simply drained and we relied only on the engine.
