Default Lipo Balancer???

I bought a vision peak ultra charger with the hopes of just having one charger for all of my nimh and lipo batteries but have since learned that it doesn't have a balancer function for lipos.

Does anyone know of an inexpensive balancer for lipo batteries? I don't need it to charge, just balance.

Thanks!
Chris

Elaborating on Druss's response: http://www.readyheli.com/Astro_Blink...r_p/blinky.htm

Edit: Oops, didn't notice the extra links posted for Blinky.

I have a blinky and it works great. It's small, cheap, easy to use and does the job. Just make sure you order an adapater (or adapters) if required (depending on the balance lead on your LiPo's).
