I decided to post this here rather than asking you via email because I think that maybe there is someone with the same question as mine.
If you recall I've got a V-Balancer and a Orbit Pocket lader charger. I want to know if I can charge 4 batteries at the same time using two V-Balancers. Right now I can charge two 3S batteries in a 6S configuration using an adapter (shown in the picture below). Is there a way to connect two V-Balancers to my charger? If so, how can I do it?

Thanks in advance.

Fercho.

On the FlightPower web site (www.flightpower.co.uk) they show how to connect two V-Balancers to a single charger. This information can be found by following the product link and select "Balancers & Leads". I use the same set up to charge two 5s packs in a 10S configuration.

With regards to charging 4 packs at the same time, I suggest that you send an email to the folks at FlightPower USA (info@flightpowerusa.com) as I'm sure they will be able to answer this question for you.

Status: offline 		Thanks Mark! By the way, which charger do you reccomend? Because I'm quite stuck now with the Orbit Pocket Lader.. It can only charge up to 5S.

I personally use the Orbit Microlader as it does up to 11 cells which allows me to charge my two FlightPower 5s1p 5350 mah packs in series using the twin V-Balancers in series. The only draw back is that the highest charge rate is 4.5 amps with the charger in a 10s configuration.

I probably will be changing to the Orbit Microlader Pro version which has a higher cell / amp capability.
