What batteries do you have? You probably only need one of those.

In practice LiPos don't drift out of balance in normal use, so you don't really need a balance lead. It's worth checking their balance regularly with a meter to make sure they're okay, but if you don't abuse them they'll stay in balance fine.

One advantage of a balance lead is you're checking the balance every time you connect it, but if you get a bad connection you can actually put it out of balance...

I've just bought some hobbyking 2s cheap lipos to see if we like buggy racing, having never charger anything other than 1s in my 1/12 & gt12 cars I've not got a clue what I'm doing yet lol, the lipos are 4600 so don't no what amps to charger - discharge ( if needed ) and balance, I charge my 1s @ 12a
