how similar are these balancers?
 

I was wondering how similar these balancers were:

- Hyperion LBA6

- Great Planes Electrifly Equinox:

- Orion Stability Balancer:

The reason I ask, is because I own a LBA6 and was wondering if I can mix and match the connectors from the balancers above for use with different branded lipo packs. Thanks for any help.

They are the same, just rebadged hyperions. I'd have to say you get a better deal with the Orion because it comes with all the different adapters up to 5S. You should be able to miss the harnesses. At least I was able to with the great planes ones.

The units are the same, however the wiring harnesses that the Equinox come with are not Polyquest/Hyperion style. But Polyquest/Hyperion harnesses will plug into the Equinox.

Much appreciated.

So I assume that the equinox harness will plug into my lba6 with no worries then. My goal is to use flightpower packs with my balancer.

I was hoping that this harness would be direct plug and play with my balancer:

You might need to rearrange the pins on it, but it looks like the same plug to me for the old hyperion balancer.
