Electric Stunt > Gettin all AMP'ed up!
Quick simple battery discharge method - any ideas?
Dennis Toth:
Guys,
I find myself in a situation where I charged up packs the night before a planned flying session then in the morning found the weather closed out and no flying. The forecast now shows a blowout for the next week. This is the one thing I don't like about electric. You have to plan and charge then the weather has to cooperate. If timing goes wrong for a day or two you are still OK but a week or more can cause the pack to puff (you can get away with this a few times when the packs are new), so need to get them off full charge to preserve the life of the pack.
I want to discharge the packs but my charger takes way to long to get the job done. Anyone have a simple way to discharge packs to say 85% quickly?
Best, DennisT

Easy method of discharging a full pack in 5min 30s:
Connect to the model, press start, and hold on.
BONUS: all the shelves in the house will get dusted for free.

I have 3 of these units. they work well. However i made my own holder for the light bulbs. Where did you get the printed stand?

Hi John,
I got mine on eBay at: https://www.ebay.com/itm/363569727770
Just be aware it does not come with the battery balancer/discharger unit, which is sold separately. This is just the holder or fixture only.
