We have parallel charging leads in stock, this is a lead version so a bit easier to tidy away with the rest of your adapters and things. Allows for 6 battery charging, Awesome with more time in the air on this little bird!

Paz, I bought one but havent tried it out yet. It looks like you don't have to charge all 6 at the same time either, but it will do upto 6 in parallel.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. kylelnsn, just ordered it from your site.

I'm new to charging, i've got a elysum lx60b pro charger for my trex 450 lipos & 2 stock 130x chargers.

I got 4 stock 130x batteries, depending on my situation i could be using the new leads to charge 1,2,3 or 4 batteries at a time so need to know the charge settings for all four of these situations. Can anybody help?

My lx60b setting options are:

1. Battery capacity
2. Battery voltage
3. Charge current

Also will this new lead fit into my jst xh or Flight power TP balancing port adapter, if not which one will i need?

It have been shipped this morning Paz, I will get back to you on charging specs. Or someone with far more knowledge will help you out!

kylenlnsn, thanks for the quick delivery (just received the package).

Can anyone help confirm what the charge settings should be when parallel charging stock 130x batteries or confirm if I've understood how to setup the charger. From my understanding the following formula should be used when charging 130x stock batteries:

1. Capacity should be set to mah x no.of Batteries e.g. if I was charging 2 stock batteries then capacity would equal 350 x2=700mah
2. Voltage should always be 7.4v
3. Current should be set to 0.1A x no.of Batteries e.g. if I was charging 2 stock batteries then Current would equal 0.1A x2=0.2A

Any feedback would be helpful?

Thanks

Charger Settings

• The voltage setting must be set at 2S or 7.4V no matter how many packs are placed in the adapter.
• The charge current should be set at the rate you wish to charge each cell, multiplied by the number of cells in the adapter.
• For example, A Miniaviation 300mAh 30C 2S pack may be charged at up to 2C (this is 600mA or 0.6A per pack). If 3 x 300mAh packs are placed into the adapter and are to be charged at a 2C rate, the charge current on the charger should be set to 3 x 0.6A (1.8A).

Thanks Jack, it all makes sense now.

One last question before I try charging; when using the charge leads (link below) do I need to plug the banana leads into the charger or just balancer board to charge and balance stock batteries.

There is a post on here stating overland 130x batteries charge through the balancer board only and banana lead not required to be plugged in so I'm wondering if the same applies to Eflite stock batteries?
