Trakpower v-balance leads

markwilliamson2001 · #1 19-12-2009

Hi,

I have in the past bought a trakpower v-balance, and pit pro charger. These work fine with my trakpower branded lipo's.

Unfortunately, I have some vampire saddles (since the trakpowers were not in stock at the time), but the balance lead for them has a small white 3 pin connector on it, as well as some of my other small micro lipo packs.

Is there a lead out there for the v-balance that will work with this small white 3 pin connector?

Thanks for any help.

If you can post a pic of the battery balance connector and the charger balance socket, I might be able to ID them. There are a few model aircraft shops that sell balance lead converters, we might be able to match them up

sorry to say that the item on the trakpower website is a 4 pin adapter, and is the one I already use on their 1600mAh 2S packs which fit in my micro.

Will post a pic in a few minutes of the adapter. It seems to be a standard connector for 2S packs.

As I understand it from a couple of model aircraft sites I go on, Flightpower is going through some difficulties. The site has been down for some time apparently.

Okay here are the balance leads on the packs. The v-balance is an 8 pin connector, not seen any other types use this tbh.

Thanks for looking, and helping guys!

It looks like the balance plugs you have there are JST-XH, quite common on aircraft lipos. As I'm not sure if I can post a link to a specific shop, I have pm'd you a link to what I think you need
