the 610i is able to output 250 Watts..
where as the 1210 is able to output 180 Watts, and to charge two packs at one time, you'll need the 2nd LBA10..... if you charge two 6S packs with the 1210i, it would be 90 Watts per balancer/channel...

Question? I already have a Superbrain 989 with a 10amp power supply, but I need a lipo balancer to go with it. What can you guys recommend? Right now I have a pair of 7.4v 10,000mha lipos and a pair of 11v 10,000mha lipos from maxxamps, but will probably have ones even bigger later on down the road

I just need a balancer that will do a good job so I don't end up frying my investment.

I personally love my 1210. It’s great. I might be wrong so some one correct me if I am. The 1210 has more options in the long run. If you were charging the same battery on both the 1210 or the 610, by far the 610 would charge faster. The built in balancer is a good feature. The there are more options with the 1210 in the long run. I didn't think the time difference mattered as much as the options mattered. I also bought the LBA10 balancer. Great item too. I know I read somewhere here on the forums that there is another balancer same circuits, different stickers that had more connectors supplied with it. I can't find the name of it though.

same price but more connectors.

Do you have links that you can show where to purchase these balancers? What on line companies sell them? What brand name are they under? Thanks Guys.

They are all made by Hyperion. Just google it for all the sellers an RC nut could want.

Thanks Hickoryhead

I just ordered the balancer with harnesses for 1s through 6s plus the adapter to join two balancers together for later use. From Pure Hobby all for $66. At least I can have peace of mind knowing that I will be able to charge whatever I get myself into with these lipo batteries. They said it would go out today in their outgoing mail shipment. Of course going through the APO system it will take anywhere from one to two weeks to arrive here in Brussels, Belgium. That's ok though I want to charge up the lipos before we go on vacation in December, and my 4.5 HV Maxx system is coming in this week from Tower Hobby. That one is going on my UE SuperMaxx. I won't get to play with it until we return New Years. I also have 2 pair of steel pinoin gears (32 t & 45t) coming for my twin Dewalt 14volt setup on my FLM maxx, and these motors are huge

. New Year will be fun. If that is not enough I have some electronics on my Xmas list as well. A Quark 125B, and MGM 160 amp, and a couple NEU and Fueigo brushless motors for the other two Supermaxx's

gasp:. Then I have to think about what I want for my birthday in Feb. Come on 2008.

the 1210i is awesome, and I do have one.. but I'd rather have two 610i networked together to have 500 Watts of charging power... :)

This is good for when you have high voltage/high capacity Lipos and want to charge @ 2C.... 1210i is able to charge 12S @ 4Amps.... or (2) 6S @ 2 Amps Each... 610i could charge a 6S @ 11 Amps... so you could easily charge a 6S1P 5000mAh in a little more than half an hour(that is if your lipo is able to charge @ 2C)
