I recently acquired an old but unused "SuperCycle" battery cycler, made by Electrostar Systems. It's the old (retro?) style with mechanical timers for the Tx and Rx batteries. It seems to work very well on my NiCd packs. I didn't get a manual for it though, so although I know the discharge time I can't calculate pack capacity because the discharge rate is unknown to me. I've haunted the net but haven't found any info. Would any of you have a manual for this unit? I'd be happy to send some $$ for copying and postage.

They didn't come with a manual.. Mine is calibrated in mAh so I don't have to do any math.

You could connect a Digital Multimeter set to mA in line with the charge/discharge circuit5 and it will tell you waht the discharge rate is.
