Which Balance Board!? - 06.10.2009, 11:30 PM

So I have a BC6... And I'm charging my hardcases by a harness, so I don't need the balance port.


But, I ordered two Turnigy 2Cell, 5000mAh LiPos, and need the correct board.

Yes, it says 15C, but it was a wrong label, besides, if makes something go poof, I'll take it back there, and make em eat it!

Okay, probably not, but still



So, the plug is a JST-XH, which board do I need?

eStation BC6 charger..

I'm a idiot.
There's an XH board?
Hyperion board? I dunno, I'm so retarded when it comes to lipos, well, I'm retarded overall.

Any links?

This might be the right place to ask...

Where can I get jst-xh balance taps? I'm spliting a lipo and I'll need taps and a balance adapter/board.

I think you can buy a male extension cord from hobbycity, and just split it in half, and have two taps.

The balance board is a link above.

I guess the Align/MegaPower is the same as the JST-XH

JST/align/astro 2.5mm spacing taps and be done with it.

Maxamps don't need their crappy hyperion plugs. Thunder power can live with the above. FMA can kiss my ass.

I don't get it FMA uses a different plug than EVERYONE ELSE. So you have to buy the boards from them whether they're hyperion/thunderpower or JST/align/astro/SMC/ blah blah blah.

Whoever thought it would be a great marketing idea to use a different plug than the first major distributor of Lipo's with taps needs to be slapped.
