OK, I see my mistake...
I now have a Sanyo 4H-1700AA NiMH RX pack.
The only thing I have to charge with is the quick field charger.

{quote} I charge at C/10 and discharge at C/5 three times to check capacity. Even after that I usually only charge at C/5 to be gentle on the battery and reduce the chances of failure.

What would C/10? be on my field charger. I see now that if I set the charger to 500mA or higher. It quick charges then cuts to a trickle charge.
Sounds like I want to set it on 0.4 or 0.2 amps? This will avoid any quick charge and be more "gentle" on the battery?

Is 0.2 Amps equal to 2 mA ???

How do you discharge at C/5 to check capacity?

How would you suggest I check the battery between flights.
I could take my wing off (elastics) to get at the battery but theres got to be a better way.

Like I said, I have the voltwatch but I dont know how reliable it is..

Thanks for the help.
