Default venom pro charger-cell block balancer

Ok i'm new to lipos. I have a venom pro charger that came with cell block balancer. I purchased a flight power eon x30 2200mah 6s 22.2 v battery. The battery has a deans connector and 2

other plugs. I assume the deans plugs into your charger and the other 2 are supposed to plug into the balancer. But the 2 balancer plugs dont match up with the cell balancer pins. They dont

match up, they wont plug into balancer??? What am I missing here?? Do different brand batteries have different size balancer plugs?? Anyone with the same setup have suggestions??

Thanks for any info

Welcome to the world of no-standards. Yes, there are several different balancing plugs. My brain isn't in full gear right now, but there is a site that shows what style of balance pins the major Lipo suppliers use. You will then have to get the proper adapter.

Try a form/topic search her and in wattflyer.

Yup, you'll soon have a big bag of adapters.

Thanks for the replies and link.
Wow this just got more confusing about different board adaptors and such. I guess I will goto the not so local hobby shop and see if they have anything that will work.

Well just to follow up on this I contacted Flightpower (which is probably what I should have done in the first place) and was told I needed this adapter FPWM0169. And of course I can't seem to find anybody that has them in stock.
