balance leads

[70bee]

Have a few batterys that dont fit my tp205 because the balance leads/plugs are too large...does anyone make a adapter?

There are some adapters out there. You'll have to do some searching for them, I serached for a little bit readyheli and 3dhobbyshop both have tp to astro blinky adapters which may work if the pin spacing is right for you. But, if you really want to make sure the pin spacing matches, you can take your batteries and balancer to your local electronics store and making your own adapter leads.

Which ever way you decide to go is up to you.

I got the Hyprion LBA6 balancer from Readyhelli. It has connectors for Polyquest. I have TP, Polyquest, and Esky. To go to Thunder Power I need to make an adapter.

I don't see any addapters out there for this. You can't even get the connectors. I called Readyheli and they told me that the Chinees and South Koreans won't get togather on connectors to standardize and he can't get the connectors. You can get the TP male connectors, but not the female. I can’t find the female Poly Quest connectors either. Then there is Esky. I wish I had kept the connector off the cheap charger I burned up.

The only way I can find to do that (and the way suggested by Readyheli is to get the connector for the LBA6, clip off the connector from the TP battery, and cut off end of the LBA6 connector using the end that goes into the LBA6 and put that on the battery. Then all my TP batteries will plug directly into the balancer (not use an adapter lead).

If there is an electronics supply handling these it seems like an RC source would be selling them or making addaptors.

I am sure other folks have similar problems with other balancers. Any body found an adapter source or connector source?

If anybody else is trying to do the same thing I just found this because of a charger that Bob Finless was looking at. I haven't tried it yet but you should be able to cut off the connector and put one on that goes to your sourse. I my case the Hyperion LBA6.

Bishop Power Products makes good cheap adapters for TP packs to LBA6 balancers. They're working perfectly for me.
