Thanks very much for taking the time to knock that up for me Brian, it is as I suspected from your 2x 3s diagram, just remove the red wire and plug the blacks into the next slots but I wanted to be sure.

I use bullet connectors so I will be plugging the cells directly into each other to series them rather than using a main power harness and ziptieing them to the balancer harness, electrically this seems to be the same can you see any problems doing it this way (assuming I mark the balance plugs so they go into the right pack)?

Thanks again Brian, I made up the adapter this morning and just tested it out, it worked fine and after 5-10 mins my 3 new 2s packs where balanced together.

I also tried to balance my buggy's 4s flightpower 4350 pack for the first time, but the balancer switched itself off right after I plugged it in, after about 50 runs in the buggy and charging on my cheap Apache 2500 at 2.5Amps no balancing was needed at all, Flightpower rock!

Unfortunately my 1210/LBA10 combo didn't come with the dataport cable that it was supposed to Does anyone know the wiring layout of this? it looks like it uses standard Futaba servo plugs at both ends, is that right? I hope to get charging with my new combo before I receive the dataport cable in the post which will probably be weds or thurs if they get my E-Mail on Monday.
