I have been charging mine at 9.2 amps which is a good charging rate according to a tech I talked to in Promatch batteries. Promatch , however , said yiu can charge the batts up to 20 amps.. but it will affect the life of the battery . OK... now we are talking. I am going to try charging my batts at 20 amps next time im going to the track. But now my question is... FYI i have an iCharger 308duo.... after I charge the batts at 20 amps... run the car. Can I charge the batts again at 20 amps without discharging? Should i get a discharger just to do this "high charging technique". Btw... this is just for club racing. For now... I dont have any ambition to race at big events.... yet.
