Battery Nurse
 
Anyone using one of these from Tekin. Need some feedback on them to make up my mind whether it would be useful or not. Or is everyone switching over to lipo and not using 4600's anymore.

I'm still running NIMH in 1/12. I picked up a nurse last month along with new race packs for this season. I haven't had it long enough to say much one way or the other, but I did notice that last year without the nurse, my packs seemed to go out of match by a lot... traying them before charging, one or two cells in a pack the lights would go out qyuick, while the others in the pack would take maybe half an hour or 45 minutes to get down to .9 on the tray...

Now with the nurse, the cells all seem to hit .9 in the tray within a few minutes of each other... This seems to me to indicate that the nurse is keeping the cells in similar condition... no packs with one or two weak cells so far...

Hi guys, I got myself a nurse today, but I could only afford one at the moment. Can I put 3 4cells packs in and 3 6cell packs?

Will the nurse pick this up? I read the instructions, but I cant find that anywhere...

I bought the Nurse and two Dr. discharge trays and have not used any of them very much as I switched to all Lipo shortly after buying them. Will sell my Battery Nurse and two Battery Doctor discharge trays for $120 shipped. Sill have boxes for discharge trays. PM if interested

OKay J wont sell to me because I live waaaaaay over here in SA.

Anyway. NO one answerd me.

All the cell counts must mach, so all the packs must be 6/5/4 cells not different. Can I put 4, 6cell packs in and 3, 4cell packs (that will be the same as two more 6cell packs, right?)

Will this be fine? But it will mean one packs two cells will be split between two differnt packs?
