Balancers for TrueRC and Others

[GorillaMaxx360]

so with the blinky you do not balance while it is charging so before you charge. how long does it take to balance and how does it compare to the balancers that conect through the charger.

the only point of a balancer IMO is to balance WHILE charging. before its useless, and afterwards youve already done the damage... so get one which you can use while charging (inbuilt ones in the hyperion ones rock)

If you're going to get the Duo with it's builtin balancers, whatever you buy now will be obselete when the Duo arrives, so I'd keep it as cheap as possible and still be functional. Astro Blinky sounds like way to go. If you have a dvm might check and see how far out of balance they actually are, you may be lucky and find they are not that bad.

Balancing after charging is not a good as doing it together - after you lose some capacity as balancer evens voltages out.
