Hi, I have a few matched and zapped GP3700's and a Team Much More Zero-V coming in a few days. From what I can tell the Zero-V discharges the cells down to a 0v cut-off, I heard this was bad and you should never discharger cells down any lower than 0.9v per cell (5.4v for 6 cells). Can you guys tell me what the proper procedure is for me to get the longest life out of my batteries as I probably won't be able to buy any new ones in quite a while.

Thanks

Right before charging put the packs on the muchmore tray until the lights go out.

After running the pack you should discharge them with something that is 30/35amps until 5.4v and store until next time.

I was told the GP batteries will have a better performance if you tray them down to zero volt. the IB batteries on the other hand should never go pass 0.9v per cell.
