 MK> it is slow.  it has teaken 3 days to discharge the dumb pack.  but it
     Then it does suck.   You want to discharge at a similar rate to
     how you discharge during a race, ex: 20-25 amps.  3 days is way, way
     too slow.  An average pack out of a stock motored car, after a four
     minute race, will only have 60 to 180 SECONDS @ 20 amps left.
     Mods will run from 0 seconds on up.
     BTW, your cutoff voltage should be .9 volts per cell, going any lower
     may reverse a cell.
     To go below .9 volts per cell you need an equalization tray, do not
     confuse discharge with equalization.
