CARE & MAINTENANCE

NOTE THAT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD YOU ZERO YOUR RACE PACKS. This will reduce the voltage on your high voltage cells

After the race it is important to discharge the pack at the highest rate that you have available (up to 30 amps) down to 1.0 volts (6.0 volts per pack)

You can use your packs more than once per day but this will slightly reduce runtime on the second run. Make sure your pack is cool between charges (let it rest at least 2 hours)

We always recommend the use of an equalising tray before the next charge to ensure that all cells start from a equal starting point.

If you are racing every week then you will not need to do anything to your cells other than discharging to 0.9 volts per cell. If they will be left 2-3 weeks then we recommend putting about 50% of capacity of cells back in to the pack before storing. Before the next use, discahrge the pack to 1.0 volts per cell
