Loving my Cellshield http://www.dimensionengineering.com/CellShield.htm (as long as you don't use reverse- it defaults to 1.0ms which is full reverse or full brakes) it has an adjustable cut-off and you can use a temp probe as well. I havn't hot the temp probe yet but I'm going to use it to safeguard the motor from getting too hot.

It monitors each cell, dosn't require any special balance plug or pin-out, dosn't interfere with throttle signal if you don't plug in a lipo(if you throw in a nimh once in a while), and has already kept me from going below voltage on a brand new 3S MaxAmps pack (3.4v-3.3v-2.9v, the MM cutoff was set to 9.6v and the cellshield was the backup safety at 2.9v).


If I could only draw what I see in my head, then afford to build it, and finaly get to play with it...
