    I have a 2002 Toyota Prius. I'm going to be upgrading all of the Gen 1 modules with Gen 2 modules. After doing a lot of research, I'd like to do the following....

    1. Check voltage and charge each module as needed.
    2. Determine the resistance and capacity of each module.
    3. Reset the memory of each module.
    4. Sync all the modules so they all have the same voltage.

    I've read and watched many videos and it's left me overwhelmed and confused. What type of charger is best? Best way to discharge, how LOW and how many times to discharge? Does discharging and recharging reset the memory or does syncing them together achieve the resetting of the memory?

    So looking forward to your input, experience and knowledge!
