LiPo Charge Balancing Adapter
I'm relatively new to E-R/C adnd have been flying a Tensor on Great Planes 1500 3s LiPos. I have only 2 batteries and finally decided that I need to buy a bunch more if I'm gonna continue. My charger is the PolyCharge 4 from GP and it works well - BUT - most of the batteries I now see come with balancing connectors on the charge line. I talked to Great Planes Product Service yesterday and they said that what I need is their "Equinox Balancer" at $49.99 each (Yah, not even 50 bucks). In order to set up all 4 ports of my charger I would have to spend another $200 :-(( Doesn't anyone make a simple pc board adapter that doesn't cost an arm and a leg ?

RE: LiPo Charge Balancing Adapter
Thanks, Rob, I checked it out and also found out that the Equinox Balancer is $29.99, not the $49.99 the support guy told me.
Guess I'll have to bite the bullet <G>
