Charger balance extension cable
🔗 https://www.MrD-RC.com 🔗 / mrd_rc
Here is a useful little cable from SpeedyBee. Which makes charging easier. In the days of old. Chargers used to come with long leads. Which meant plugging in the battery was pretty easy. These days, chargers are more minimalistic. The main power and balance ports are flush installed in the charger. It looks nice. But it can be a pain to plug in the battery. Especially when the battery has short balance leads.
In the past, we could have used regular balance extensions to make life a bit easier. But, you either had to force the balance lead in to the extension. Or cut down the socket on the extension to allow batteries of different cell counts to fit.
SpeedyBee have released some balance lead extensions that allow us to have an easier time. The sockets can accept 2S to 6S packs without any forcing or modification.
