Ok I am thinking about getting a Real-Time 2 discharge tray but want to know more. Why I should get it, When I should use it, How long should batts stay on, ADV/DIS-AdVS. I currently discharge with a 20amp deans lightbulb kit. Should I get a realtime 2? Would it help the batts more. ANYTHING that can be said about this product, PLEASE SAY IT and we will talk. Everyone facts and opinions.

Great for Nicad batteries. Don't use it with Nimh.

You will still need to bring the pack down with the bulbs until the cutoff switch trips. Then put them in the tray for and hour or so to equalize the cells.

The Trinity tray is as good as any other.

SirSpeedy > I only use Nicads. I dont use an autocutoff, just pull the plug when the coils glow red. So it would be a good idea to pick one of these up and use it? I know NAIRB uses his all of the time, and I have seen him leave the batts on for the whole night. Does this matter? Doesnt it shutoff auto?

Yep. Pick one up, and after the cells come down on the bulbs, and then to the tray....well worth the money.

No, Side by Side packs only...

Thank's for the info SirSpeedy. How long do you recommend leaving it on the tray? Or does it matter. I have seen people leave them on all night with no effect, so if I leave them on at night it won't do much to the batts

Leave them on at least an hour or two.
