I have been happy with the trinity realtime2 discharger. I believe it has a discharge rate of 20A or 30A. Can't give you much more advice with batt maintenance. I just started my son in electric so I am also learning as I go.

I think that the best advice on batteries would be to fully discharge them every two or three times of use....you'll need a discharge device for this or a charger that discharges also, but a battery that is discharged on a regular basis will give you consistant run times.
