Hi

I just bought Hyperion EX G3 2S 5000mAh 45C batteries (from OSE).
It never occurred to me that I could not charge them on my onyx 245 without an adapter for the balance connector.

I looked at the numerous adapters on the hyperion web site but I cannot identify the one I need.

I would really appreciate help with identifying the adapter I need, and where I can buy one.
- or is there a work around?

Thanks in advance.

I wished Hyperion used the more common xh (Electrifly) tap like Grimracer, Neu, and most others lipo packs come fitted with. xh should be the standerd.

I would purchased this Hyperion charger from OSE (comes with both Hyperion and XH balance taps)

Return the Onyx if possible.

Thanks for the advice.

In the end I went with this mod (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WBghw3prd8&feature=results_video&playnext=1&list=PLAE92B8CD6445542D)

1 minute per battery - worked like a charm, it may not be ideal, but it got me up and running for the weekend.
