here they are... finally. i would like someone to check if they are done correctly as ive not even hooked it up or tested it in any way. the orange wire is still out as it needs the tab lifted so it cannot fall out... fixed now :)

i just followed the instructions on brianG's page and thats how it turned out.


also i got my charger yesterday (sent on the 21 of april... bpp is slow...) and i already had version 1.5 loaded into it, so i dont have to update it :)

hope this helps,
ryan.












also, here is brianG's picture of his adaptor with main wires:

it looks like he has used both +ve wires, but i only used one... hopefully he can provide some input towards this topic. also anyone doing this, i cant grentee this to be right, but i think it is, or close to. never used hyperion taps before!

nice job TC3.

So I think I will make a seperate harness that I will only use on the charger (that way I dont have to redo the deans on my batteries). I wish I knew if I could purchase the female version of the balance tap on the battery - but it shouldn't be all that hard to change to something like a Hyperion or FP tap, right?

I think BPP took forever since you used their free shipping. THey arent going to do anything but ground unless you pay for it. I got mine overnight from Maxamps - but they are just on the other side of the state from me.

im international ;) so it had to come via air, but yeah, i was feeling cheap that day, and with 7% off i didnt want to spend that saving on the shipping (but i would have knowing the extremely long shipping time, as last time it took less than 3 weeks... i did however get a discount which is good :)

also, i tried the adaptor and it only senses 3 batteries on the charger (balance function)... so i will see if the wire on one of theconnections is broken, but i doubt it. but it is exactly the same as the picture, so im a bit confused...
