I'm putting my current charger up on ebay within the next couple days, so lets just hope that sells.

Can you use a balancer on the 989?

If not, and you dislike fires and explosions, go with the hyperion. :027:

I wasn't planning on buying a balancer since I only bash, and don't need my batteries in top notch condition, although I still like to keep them in fairly decent shape and take care of them in the proper ways.

Should I still buy one?

The 989 works very good with the LBA10 balancer.

***RC*** : if your using lipo, id highly reccomend a balancer, it will lengthen their life and will give better performance.

Is this it: http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail...alancer&cat=19

Also, what do they mean when they say this: "2-6 cell smart balancer Network 2 units together for 2-12 cell balancing"? Will I be able to balance two seperate 6s packs at the same time? Or can I only do 2-6 cells?

Sorry for all the questions, I am very clueless (lol:005: ) when it comes to lipo's. Thanks again for all the help.

Yes. When they say that, it means you can put two balancers and charge 7-12s lipo at the same time.

You will receive 1 for $50. If you will not be charging/balancing over 6s than you are fine with one.
