Charging And Discharging GP 3700 Cells

For "normal" racing I charge at 4.5A and discharge on the Novak discharge system down to 0.9v.

For "championship" racing, charge at 6A, and discharge to 0.9.

dave, i think ben wask asking how many amps do you discharge at do you just use the tray, or a discharger, ben i discharge from 10-30 amps, depends on how much charge the pack has.

hi ben
its not practical to charge in this way without a step charger.
before i used this method of charging i would charge my cells at 5amps
setting the delta peak cut off to 4mv.
i would discharge at 20amps.
i have never had any problems with this.
i hope this as been some help.
