after a lot of deeeep thought - I ordered another CellPro 4 and a dozen of the pigtails
this gives me two, CellPro 4 - one a 3 amp one a 4 amp and - I have a Dapter/ Astro Flite 12 deluxe setup -
so - in using various pack combos -I can charge up anything on site - quickly and balance if req'd
I am wiring my 6 cell packs with two sets of 3 cell charge plugs--for balance if the need arises -typically, I charge with the Dapter setup - but now I can balance or "top off " a pack by shifting to the Cell Pros.
My new model is one of my old SlimZlin designs from 1980's built very lite-with a 60 EFlite and 6 A123
790 squares AUW will b easily mid 6 lb
I got to get an autogyro too -seriously - I want one of the 3 blade dual rotor ones

Why solder anything when using 123s, when you can use the power tubes from MODEL ELECTRONICS CORP? And if a cell goes bad you can replace it in 5 minutes.

If you have 4 cells, it makes a long tube.
I'd like to see someone make a 4 pack BB with them in a parallel package.
They say not to solder to the batteries so a good BB makes sense.
