CellPro PowerLab 8 Balancing Adapter Types And Kinds. - 05.24.2011, 02:31 AM

Thank you for this information Snellemin-

I'm going to continue to store these liPo's until I sell them, and though the voltage has maintained a steady rate in storage thus far(many months), I would like to do at least one discharge and then storage mode charge with each of these LiPo's. I'll charge them back up to 50 or 60 percent after a minimal discharge to each of the batteries. I'm thinking it may be easier to buy the adapter which allows me to balance charge these specific LiPo's with the PowerLab 8, rather than using the external Team checkpoint balancers which I- at one time- used to balance these cells with- long ago(with the Team Checkpoint- 10amp chargers).

If you or anyone knows of a link where I may buy the balancing adapter which would allow me to balance charge with my PowerLab 8- the Orian Platinum Series LiPo's which has two 4mm female bullet connector/receiver holes in the battery for the positive and negative leads- and then one very small- I think it's 2.5mm female bullet type receiver plug/hole in the battery case between the two 4mm holes- for balancing this type of battery. I do not know the proper name or type of plug used for balancing this battery. Nor do I know how I would go about making such an adapter. What puzzles me- is I had ask Howard at FMA Direct- when I initially place my order for these chargers- that I would need the proper balancing adapter for these type of batteries(I specified the battery plug type- (two 4mm & one 2.5mm Female bullet connector) in order that I may balance charge these liPo's- if ever needed. If anyone here has any insight- into which adapter(s) I may need- please let me know on this thread- as a last resort- I'll see if I can get into contact with Howard Matos at FMA Direct- where I purchased these power plants.
