newbie help with balancer

Hi all, I need to get a balancer for my Triton (the first triton) charger,
Can any of you expert please tell me an equivalent to this balancer here in the UK?

i have,nt seen that one before in first picture but the secound one i have.the secound one you can get different ones to fit differnent battery ballance leads.but if you have,nt got a charger that takes the ballance board then the secound picture one is no good for you.so you have to get the one thats connected to the battery in the picture with charger or get a charger with the ballancer built in £50 hope ive been some assitance to ya

The board you linked to is simply an adapter to connect batteries with different balance plugs to a balancing charger.

I don't think most people use the standalone balancers anymore. You can get chargers with balancers built in so cheap that it's not worth the hassle. The blinky balancer sells for around $35; here's an entire balancing charger for £30!
