Neu Energy 5000 4s balance plug to Trakpower V-Balancer
 

Hello all,

I am about to buy a Neu Energy 5000 4s pack and need to know which balance plug to Trakpower V-Balancer adapter I will need. I use the Trakpower balancer for my 1/10 buggy Trakpower packs and was hoping I could use it to balance the Neu 42 packs.

Thanks!

Does the balancer just have the 2 small pins, or did they give you other leads with it? if not, you will need the flightpower adapter for 2,3 and 6s and the neu-tp adapter from neu store

You will need a flightpower to neu (kokam) adapter. And most likely the flightpower adapter pack that the std v balancer is sold with, as your v balancer only came with the leads to hook to the trakpower packs. It woks great on all of my packs, and I prefer the v balancer interface to the lba balancers. The fuel gauge is cool too.

When I bought the V-Balancer, it came with a lead for the gold bricks. That lead has the two bullet connectors and a small tiny plug connector and the lead plugs directly into the balancer. I was wondering what plug that was or what model balancer this was based off of so I could get an adapter lead to use this to balance the Neu packs.

Here is the best picture I could find of it (click picture to make bigger):

If you don't mind, do you have links or can tell me where to purchase these leads? I am relieved that I can still use this balancer. I agree the interface is easy to use and the fuel gauge made me chuckle at first as I thought it was pure marketing. It actually comes in handy. I was told that 2s packs didn't get out of balance that bad, but I was surprised the first time I used the balancer on my packs (I know I should have bought right away but went on what I was told).

Here is what the other leads look like. You can enlarge the pic for a better look.

This is the 4s adapter for flightpower batteries.

Now you will need an adapter to link the battery to the 4s adapter I listed above. It will have to have a male flightpower 4s plug on one end, and a female kokam 4s plug on the other end fo the battery to connect to. I do not know where to find that adapter, but either cheap battery packs.com or maxamps.com may be able to make you one. I could most likely make you the adapter, just need to find a female kokam 4s plug, and I have not found that yet.

I have a neuenergy 3s lipo and used this board with my lba charger:

If you can find an adpater for the v balancer that will got to a 6s hyperiom tap, this board could be used.

You would be better off getting this adapter

And using the adapter from neu, part number NEU-TP. With that set up on my flightpower balancer, I can balance 2s to 6s neu, maxamps, and apogee batteries with no other adapters or leads. It will also do 2,3 and 6s flightpowers without the NEU-TP adapter.

I new that there had to be an easier way, thanks bdebde. I did not know that neu had an adapter to flightpower, but it is good that they do!

bdebde, where can I buy that flightpower adapter? I can't find it on any website. I found the Neu link, Neu's is a crazy website to get into the webstore.

Thanks for all the help so far guys:yipi:

It is actually a thunderpower adapter, same as flightpower though. Nice too never have to switch out connectors, as I have 3s 4s and 6s packs of different brands.

Not sure where, perhaps from the flightpower website?

Sorry for all the questions and such, just want to make sure Iget setup properly the first time.

Are any of these what I need?
