Thunder POWER 2S 4WIRE, ESKY 3WIRE ???

[wallnut240]

I have a ESKY lipo charger that charges 2S and 3S. The Esky Charger for the 2S has 3 pins. I purchased a Thunder Power 2S 1325 battery and its male connector has four wires on its connector and a clip. Does anybody know if they make a adapter to get from the 4pin to the 3 pin? Or Can the 4 wire be wired for the 3 pin to work with my charger?

It's probably time to buy a better inexpensive charger. I'm pretty sure the esky charges at .8A so it'll take a good while to charge a 1300 anyway.

You can probably use something like this to charge through the main wires http://www.helidirect.com/product_info.php?cPath=116_525&products_id=1090 the esky chargers with the RTF (AFAIK) don't balance. I no longer have one to experiment with.

I still have one of these I use occasionally http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXHNW5&P=ML but there is probably a better and more economical unit around.

You've just had a brush with the "balance tap blues" they aren't standard though JST-xt seems to be winning. I prefer charging through the power wires and using blinkies to balance no hassles that way.
