I just tried sending 0.1 to a test wallet I made (should of tested before not after) and was successfully able to sweep the wallet on blockchain.info

i won't use blockchain.info to import the private key when i come to bring my savings back online but it was just to test....

can anyone recommend a wallet to use that i can import private keys?

did you format your USB before use? over 90% of usbs come pre-loaded with virus/trojan/spyware/malware from the factory in CHINA. Did you know that? I heard that somewhere on another forum. Format that usb before using it.

Created a bootable OS.
Downloaded GitHub BitAddress.org
Went Offline
Generated Address & Private Key
Sent Bitcoin To Bitcoin Address
Put Public & Private Key on fresh USB and physical paper.

Will my Bitcoin be secure? Of course I could lose them by plugging in the USB and getting compromised but the USB is just a back up

I spread my Bitcoin across 4 paper wallets...

Yeah, I formatted the USB in Tails then used gedIT text editor to write down the private keys, the usb is just a back up of my paper wallet in case I lose it. I doubt I will ever use the usb to recover my bitcoin!

The original client can import private keys through the debug console; I do it fairly often.
