e-Station PB-6. Why?
First it supports that battery through the Align adapter, but you will need a reverse polarity adapter as well.
2nd, the e-Station Pb-6 has a 500 mah bleed rate. With that size battery, you need a high bleed rate or the balancer will not be effective until the charge process is over or nearly over. Most balancers are from 80 ma to 120 ma bleed rate.
If you are charging at 1C, 5 amps, what effect on the cells would the balancer have bleeding off 120 ma when the cells are being charged at 5 amps?
