Brian,
Happy birthday. I just want to say I always pay close attention to your posts as they have the most comprehensive knowledge I have seen yet. Always informative and willing to help. I gotta give it up to one of the forums most beneficial members.
That balancing bit was exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks

Is it safe to say that is also a good diagram for running a dual pack (y adapter) into a single pack lead ESC?

**Lipo Configuration Question -** 11.14.2009, 01:40 AM

Brian,

I have some questions regarding your schematic under "Lipo Wiring" on your website. The example I'm using is a 5S2P lipo configuration. I want to know what is represented by the wiring where the positive and negative junctions of each pack seem to be bridged to another adjacent pack? In the attached photo it is circled in green if you can make it out lol.

I also noticed that there is only one balance tap for this entire configuration. It seems to be independent of the number of packs that are put in parallel provided that each pack has the same number of cells. I changed the cell parameters just to makes sure for myself. This seems to contradict your instructions on how to make a Y harness, where there are two balancing taps, one for each pack.

Hope you can clarify this for me.
