So since we are in the same region, about the same temperature, use same IB's, run the same car.... use the same charger.... what's your starting point Sush!?

I use the nexus racing profiles when step charging, and adust the last step charging amps for punch as needed. For the liniear charge I put it at 07 or 08 with the lock out on, with a temp cut of 48-49 deg.

i was thinking og getting one of thease , some questions .
1) the orion one looks a copy of this , which one is better and why ?
2) is there any new upto date profiles for the ctx charge for
5mins, 6 cells, GP 3700 ,
3) do the orion profiles work or can they be used on this ?
i see hara uses the orion version and sets it to 5 cells !
do you have to / or can you use this profile on the much more ?
just not to sure one which one to buy , honest answer would be nice
and not just because its a much-more thread, thanks...

From what people are saying bout the NEXUS settings for the IB3800s ON CTX i found that i have to set the peak setting WAY higher...but that is just me....

No problem, James .
It has been said that NiCDs perform best with a linear charge. The charging rate is entirely up to you...just don't melt your connectors .
As a general rule:
Lower charging rate=more run-time, less power
Higher charging rate=more power, less run-time
NiCD's also like higher delta peak settings. I would start with an 09 or 10 setting.
Additionally, a stick pack has more resistance in its connections. This can cause a false peak, especially in combination with lower delta peak settings, so you will probably want to set a long-lockout for the first 10-15 minutes of charge.
thanks nexus. . . 09 or 10 for the pack or per cell? will this be 0.009 and 0.010 respectively?
I just picked up a integy 16X8 charger. I tried step charging and it seems like my batteries are not taking the MiAh that they did when I charged with a constant amps. Has anyone noticed a drop like this?
Is anyone experiencing problems with just a normal peak charge?
Whenever I use the CTX charge it seems to work fine and my battery packs take a good charge, however if I just use the peak charge it always cuts off at between 500mah - 800mah
