battery connections

[Firehorse]

Hi all,
I'm moving up to 6s-8s batts..Trex 600

I need to know how everything is connected..

Do 6s 8s batts have one plug or two 3s+ 3s ?

Is 8s 4+4 plug or just one 8 pin plug ?

I use 2 LBA10 balancers to charge 2x 3s batts so I'm hoping its as simple..

What if one day I decide to go 10s, what then do I need to consider for future proofing..

I am looking at the Bantam 902 and the BC8 as potentials..

Thanks...

I can't speak for 8S, but the 6S packs that use the Thunder Power style adapters actually split the balance tap into two plugs.. You plug both of the balance tap connectors into the BC8 balance board and away you go.

For other balance tap types, Align for an example, it is a single connector.

Yep hi Robert..

does the BC8 balance board accommodate 2 connections at the same time or separately..

I see photos of the boards but aren't the battery plugs too short ?

Dunno, totally confused.. :(

Both connections go at the same time, they are right next to each other.. :-)

Just to clarify, both connections from a TP style 6S pack get connected to the adapter board at the same time..

Ahhh, now its starting to figure..
