I did actually check out that site quite a while back and after finding this thread yesterday I was highly motivated to avoid my homework and actually went back and scoured his entire website. I think today or tomorrow I am going to fill out the paperwork for and order the MIMA kit and build/install it over the summer.
When reading through his site I found where using the MIMA you are able to charge the battery to completion rather than having the IMA stop the charge when the gauge reads full. If your gauge has swung out of calibration, as I believe mine has, this is a potential solution to recal it. I have already wanted the MIMA for a few years so now is as good an excuse as any.
I definitely expect to be asking Mike for his help with the electrical after I am better educated myself.

Thanks for that link. Unfortunately, I think they are just modulating power into the standard pack slowly and the IMA thinks the standard battery is holding its charge longer.
What I need to do is find all the wires leading to the high voltage module and figure out what they are doing. Once I know what the module is expecting and sending out, it's a matter of making a "black box" with new chemistry but the same old wires...I hope.
