I would go for the Hyperion LBA06 but it only balances up to 5S LiPo. How about the TP? They have on that balances 10S LiPo. Only downside is that its $100.

The TP balancer requires TP taps, so either an adapter would need to be bought or be made. The Hyperion balancer works well, I'm using the Great Planes version of it (Equinox).

Tower Hobbies, too. Its the Equinox, though, not the Hyperion.

Got mine at
www.b-p-p.com
http://www.b-p-p.com/proddetail.php?prod=2_LBA6

they have adapters for Thunder power taps too. So you can use it on any TP style packs might already have.

If you get the Equinox from Tower Hobbies, you won't get the standard adapters for Polyquest taps. I found out the hard way after finding the wrong adapter type in the package. The best way to go is to get the Hyperion LBA6. Maxamps is a good place to deal with.
