You will be fine following that procedure. The indi tray only brings them to 0.0 if you leave them on there for two cycles of the green lights.

If your going to leave your packs sit for a while put some charge back into them. If your packs are sitting for a while you will probably need to "wake them up". Charge them and then discharge them pretty hard (like 30 amps) the day before you plan on running and they will be golden on race day

Thanks,

That brings another question to mind. How should I use the tray with Nickel Metal batteries? Should I pull the pack off after the indiviual cell (white lights) go out? I bought it new, but it did not come with any directions. It has been trial and error for me trying to figure out how to use it.
