E-Tech 11.1v 1200_HOT!
I just picked up a new E-Tech 1200 HP. I charged it initially at .8A on the Triton and it went ok. I then tried to dischage it on my Competition Electronics GFX Turbo 35. I use this machine because I have software to graph the discharge curve on my PC. I set it for three cells with a cut off of 9V at 8Amps. The E-Tech cells are supposed to be able to handle 10 continuously per the website.

The site also says to not let the temp go above 70°C (158°F)
Problem is that it reaches the 158 limit in about 3 minutes at 8 amps. The webpage says to not give up on the packs, and keep trying.
Does anyone have more experience discharging E-Tech cells than I do?
Maybe I'm missing something.
