SPECIFICATIONs
The CTX-Discharger and Personal Matcher 2 Platinum(referred to as CTX-D2)is a state of
the art microprocessor based discharger system for Sub-C size rechargeable batteries for
R/C use. With CTX technology developed by our team of R&D, factory team drivers and
world champion Atsushi Hara, Marc Rheinard and Surikarn Chaidajsuriya. Muchmore
introduces the next generation of discharger for serious R/C drivers. The CTX-D2 is linear or
pulse type discharger and can discharge 1,2,3,4,5,6 cells or packs.
- Black back lit LCD with 16x2 characters
- IC controlled cooling fans
- Latest data memories
2.What’s Pulse Discharge?
Voltage
0.5sec
2.5sec
Time
e.g. 30A Pulse discharge e.g. 5A Linear discharge
Pulse discharge is new discharging method which is able to check your batteries
runtime and Internal Resistance at high discharging rate 30A without creating
overheat. 30A Pulse discharged runtime is shorter than 30A linear. Therefore, it is
much closer to the Modified race's discharging rate. You can select your best batteries
before race at table benchmarks.
CTX-D2 measures IR during Pulse discharge at 2minutes after actual discharged.
Lower number of IR means it has more punch.
According to out test, new batteries of GP3700 (race level) show Runtime
350~380sec and IR 7~11 on the CTX-D2.

To reduce the risk of injury, use only rechargeable Sub-C size
Ni-CD or Ni-MH batteries with the CTX-D2. Do not leave the
CTX-D2 unattended. Do not charge your cells on the tray. When
you tray your battery pack, make sure the batteries polarity and
direction are correct. Wrong connection may cause unit to fail. The
remote possibility of a failure could cause a short circuit by wrong
connection. This could cause the battery to rupture. If cells are too
hot to touch there is something wrong and the pack must be
disconnected from the discharger. Muchmore Racing(or their
associated distributors) shall not be liable for any property damage
or personal injury which may result from the failure to follow these
instructions or other improper use of this product. Avoid any contact
of your CTX-D2 with water or other liquids. Never operate on
carpets, cloths, pit towel or other materials. Never cover the cooling
fans or holes on the CTX-D2. Disconnect the CTX-D2 from power
supply when not in use. Only discharge serially switched battery
packs containing 4~6cells or single 1,3,4,6cell. Never connect the
CTX-D2 directly to a 110/230 VAC power source. For best
performance, we recommend the Power Master(24A power supply
#MM-CTXP3). New discharger may produce a slight odour in the
first few hours of service due to materials curing inside the device.
