Hey guys I have some questions about battery care. First off Im running ep 4200s and I want to get a discharger and equilizing tray. I dont want to spend a ton of money just looking for something that works. So what discharger and equilizing trays are decent and not crazy expensive or overly fancy. Secondly what maintance should be done to these packs after a day of racing?

BTW there 6 cell packs and i run them twice a race day.

Thanks

im not sure if there are 35 amps dischargers. i think what people use are turbo 35's or other chargers that can discharge at 35 amps.
