Normally, I leave them down for 4+ hours ... as long as practical, given that day's work schedule. I try to start CA jobs in the morning, then come back in late afternoon to get the tilter (and tune if that's included in the job). I haven't tried a light mist of accelerator. Don't know what's in that stuff, and I try to be careful about too much chemical ingestion.
