So yes the IB3800's cells are great racing batteries....
Michael...
So, can the same be said for the ib3600 cells? Cause I just bought some and wanted to know how to look after them. (after a race and in between as well). There is so much varying and conflicting information out there. At the moment, all I do is charge them at 6amps linear and after a race discharge them on my charger/discharger at 10 amps and then let them sit till the next time I need to use them (usually 1 week).
Should I be doing anything different? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
