Default Setting up Trakpower Stuff

Hi all,

Looking to set up the trakpower charger/balancer/3200 saddle Lipo's for charging, and a couple of things are throwing me:

1. Are the male connectors on the balancer the same size as the female ones on the charger and cells? Because they really don't want to go in!! Is it just a very snug fit or are they the wrong size and need new connectors? (all the bits are NIP so they are as standard from trakpower). Anyone who's got the same kit, can you please let me know!?

2. I assume (I know this bit is noddy but obviously don't want to screw up!) that I can connect the wire with the battery cells just between either cells +ve and the other cells -ve.

3. To connect the battery to the balancer I assume I put the small balancer plug into the small female connector on the battery cells link wire. Do I then plug the balancers 2 battery charging wires into the back of the 2 big ass connectors on that 1st balancer wire, then those wires into the other 2 females on the cells themselves? Or do I bypass the balancer wire and just use the 2 battery charging wires direct into the cells, with the small balancer wire into the link cell?

I have tried the instructions obviously, but they are based on a stick pack which has a different layout to saddle! Hope someone can help!

Dave
