Thanks. Sound like good advice.

I finally got in the mail an adapter I order from Hugo TrueRc Canada. This one will not allow the connections to be reversed. It adapt the FL to the Polyquest style.

Ignorance can be blissful at time but until I got the FP lipo in I thought there was only one type of balancer connection. I had a bunch of questions but did my own leg works so got it down to some basic ones. Found the table below and it answered serveral. Looking at it. The TrueRC, Maxamps, and Hyperion all use the Polyquest taps. Would I be right in guessing I wouldn't need any adapters to balance those batteries with the LBA10? The lipos taps should just plug right into the LBA10?.?.

As far as charging it looks from some pictures that the power from the charger goes into the input on the LBA10 then the LBA10's output goes to the batteries deans connector. Then the batteries taps connected to the LBA10. The actual charge is not going through the balancing taps?
