Default RE: Balancer, How important??

Red,

I have several LI-PO packs all without balancers. I plan on adding balancers to these packs as well as the packs I plan on building in the near future.

I believe I want a balancer to balance the packs as I am charging them. What balancer do you suggest? I want to spend my tight RC $$ wisely yanno.....

Also, since I do not have any balance connectors, my retrofit to the above packs will be a floppy disk drive power connector. See any problems with this?

It pisses me off that the MFG's cant come up with a connector so that everyone can be on the same page. So for now I will cut, snip, twist and solder!!

Thanks Red, and the group....
