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

hell I am just getting started. Actually I started working on my first Maxx build two years ago. The problem was that there are so many different ways to go wtih these things that I just want to run them all. I started the first build with the Dynamite chassis wtih quad battery trays, and saw other options out there with Hardcore, UE and FLM so I built four different Maxx's. So now I am trying to get the electronics for each one of them set into play. Of course the stock stuff is pretty laim. I want each one of them to be a little different. More fun that way. I am just trying to get my feet wet with the Maxx projects. Once I feel confident that I have learned enough with them I plan on moving in another direction. Hellfire, Jato, XTM/ MMT, then maybe a boat or two. Have you taken a look at this Global Hobbies XTM/MMT yet? It is about 75% metal construction out of the box Nitro, with dual steering servos, and less than $400.

I also hope to do a project sort of like Sikes, and configure my own one of a kind (home made) project with a direct drive setup (no tranny). This s$&%@# is so much fun. Too bad it costs so dammed much, but that is what retirement is for, right???. anyway thanks for the help with the balancer gear.

My wife () would kill me. Anyways thats what we are here for.

That is the cool thing about my wife. We both work and I never even see a paycheck. It all goes into our joint account, and She takes care of the money stuff, but my military retirement is my play money. Most of it goes to my younger children (for now), but the part that I receive right now goes towards this hobby. So I have orders going out every month. That is my vice in life. I don't smoke, drink, do drugs or any of that crapp, and I am at home every night, so there is no complaining to do. Our surroundings at home is our little paridise getaway. We have everything we could want or need so I love hanging out at home. I have one of our four bedrooms set up as a hobby shop and when I am in the mood that is where I hang out for the evening or over the weekend. No muss no fuss. Life is good. When I need cash I call her my sugar Mama, but we do most of our material shopping over the internet, because we live overseas. With the size of our family Santa will probably deliver most if not all of my wishes this year. It took a long time to get here, but I have finally arrived. Now hopefully I can keep doing this for many years to come.

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)
