Default RE: Triton Discharge Problem

Dom,

I know what you mean. I prefer to stick with NiCd and NiMH too, and the Triton doesn't do that good a job discharging or charging the NiMH batteries - too many false peaks and false cutoffs. I actually use an old FMA Direct Einstein slow charger to cycle my NiCd and NiMH batteries between flying sessions because it is immune to this problem.

Have you tried setting the Triton to NiCd batteries and cycling the NiMH on that setting? You have to monitor it more closely when you do that, but it seems to be less sensitive on the NiCd setting.
