I balance about every couple 3 cycles now and find that works about right for me .

hope this helps

I always thought that was on the parallel side, but i guess anytime you put an extra cell in a pack it makes ot more complicated and more liable to possible problems


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
