forgot to say i have my full throttle motorsposts IB4200's.
start at race day by discharging at 20 Amps to 1volt per cell using my robitronic overloader.
Then i equalize them to .9 using my trinity dpd.
I then charge them for racing 27T at 8 amps with a 3mv per cell delta peak.
They get warm but not hot and just as punchy.
after a race i just brush off the dirt and leave em.
If i need to use a set of cells again during the day i just charge em up from where i left em.
NO problems what so ever so far.
People fuck about with stuff charging discharging equalising after every run etc etc .....then you will kill them.
lipo is the way forward but until the BRCA (roar equivalent in uk) say ok use em .. then sub- c's are the weay to go.
