I like the MRC charger. This can charge both packs at the same time. The LBA10 balancer would also be my choice.
I also agree with Brian - if it were my truck, I would use each 8kmah pack seperately. The extra weight adds a load on everything, and will get slightly less runtime vs. the individual packs. The weight alone would be the determining factor for me - both packs would be heavy for this little truck and would likely cause premature failure on the drive train(and require some beefy springs and heavy shock oil). I use two 8k packs(in series) in my emaxx, which is twice the truck a Jato is(at least).
