Default Hyperion EOS SENTRY V2 Battery Checker

Has anyone used this gadget?

One of the guys at our field has one and demonstrated it to me yesterday. It's pretty neat. It gives a charge level and a percent of charge remaining in the pack, balance status, and so on.

As I said, pretty neat.

I picked one of these up in Toledo this year. it has been a pretty handy tool to have. Gives me current status of just about any type of battery that I have. Well worth the money in my opinion.<div>

It came in today. It was scheduled to be here tomorrow, so I am a happy camper.

I've been playing with it. Very neat gadget. Why didn't one of you suggest this sooner? [:@] Just kidding, of course. This takes all the guesswork out of finding a battery pack that is ready to fly with.

I bought one of these, actually the newer EOS Sentry 3, but my battery plug doesn't fit.

I primarily fly glow & gas, but I bought an eflite UMX Carbon Cub SS to fly at home. It uses a 180ma 2S battery with (I'm told by Horizon Hobby) an eflite plug. The battery pack has no balance wires.

This eflite plug doesn't fit the Sentry 3.

Does anybody know of an adapter that will work for me?
