Hi Roger,

To be honest you should have enough time between runs to get cells charged, even including allowing them to cool down.

I tend to charge them all the night before, then just re-peak in the morning for practise.

Say you use at most 2 sets for Practise, you'll still have the one set left to peak before round 1, then after that has been and gone you'll have loads of time to charge up one of your practise packs again which I find only take at the very most an hour to cool down.

I don't know what everyone else does, but i rarely discharge the cells at a race meeting either - sure enough i'll discharge them properly before charging on the Saturday but on Sunday after each run i will just let the cells cool down and re-charge them later in the day when i need them again. I've been doing this for a while and not had any problems? I charge them at 4a if that makes any difference.

All i'm trying to say is i'm sure you'll be fine with 3 packs and don't believe you'll do any damage by running them more then once or even twice in a day if you leave them to cool between charging.

As they've limited racing to 80 drivers that should mean you get a good hour/1.5 hours between runs so i'm sure you'll manage on 3 packs (i certainly intend to)!
