Discharge help please!!
#1
I have a 6v 2700 nimh pack that I have done the c/10 form charge on twice now. When I discharge at the recommended C/5 rating down to 1.1v per cell (triton2 recommedation for rx packs) I can only get around 2300-2400 mah taken out. Is this normal or should I take the pack down to .09v per cell or does my pack need more cycles?? Thanks!

If your discharger is adjustable, take it down to .9 volts per cell. If you are using long leads, try shorter leads. Under average circumstances, i'd say the same as Guver. Sounds about normal.
If you accept 2300 - 2400 as full capacity, then when you test it after using it for a while, consider this normal, and toss it when it drops below 80% to 85% of your accepted normal.
