My new SV

[z400]

leads???
more than enough length. I run all my boats, cars, and planes this way..
more connectors could mean more resistance

Well my freakin bad buddy.
I'll think before i share my experience next time when your around.

[Brushless55]

and in my MM that is wider

Thanks agian its so much cleaner with out all those wires in there. I have a Turnigy 8150 charger I can charge 4 packs in about an hour and 15 mins I love it.

Wizard nice setup, question on the cooling jackets, the first one you had installed was it for a 540xl and why the switch?

As long as you use both of your balance tabs hooked up to your charger..
my charger only goes upto 5A so I only charge one at a time.

Just confrim my thinking charging the way you have pictured just charge 2 2s batts at 4s @ 5000mah correct since it is in series (voltage double, mah constant). I am just reassuring myself, I don't think the wife would be happy if I burned the place down lol. Also where might I grab a balance board with 2 2s slots?

You are correct my friend!
after posting that picture I thought about that and now realize I can charge two and even three of my 2s packs at the same time, as long as I have the balance tabs hooked up..
that would save me alot of time durring charging

Do you have a balance board that can support 2 2s batts, If so where did you get it from?

Wizard if your still following I know you have one I just forget where you got it from.

[Brushless55]

I don't have one yet, but they can be bought from Hobbycity..
the connector will allow charging three 2s packs at the same time, or you can get one that will balance two 2s packs at the same time

Changed to Ammo 2300

The stock Sv motor has that jacket but the Ammo motor is shorter so I went with the OSE jacket

Bingo!
I need to find me a balance tab so I can charge three 2s packs in series..
I would be nice to charge 3 batteries in the same time it takes to charge one with my charger

Wizard called me yesterday and pointed me in the right direction. Here's what I just order and this is what wizard is showing in the pic above. I ordered 2 of them since I have 2 chargers. http://www.helidirect.com/multibalan...pb6-p-7595.hdx

Perfect! that's just what I need..
One thing though, I did try charging 3 2s packs just 30min ago without the balance tabs and notice the max amps my charger charged at was 2.3amps..
that sucks, so it would till take a long time to charge 2 or 3 batteries at the same time with the charger I have
