Cole: Memory is pretty much exactly how it is said, for instance if you take some 2000 cells and charge them run them like 3 min, then just put them away, charge them up and run them another 3 min....etc without discharging them, the cells remember this treatment so when you go to discharge the pack and actually start to take care of them on the track once you hit the 3 min mark you will start to feel the poor performance of the pack. this is memory.


jag88: I mostly run mod off-road and runtime is not a factor, so I cunder charge my packs so they last as long as possible.
