Charging without removing battery packs

[florensvb]

Ok combining all these amazing answers, I think this is what I will do:

First I will need to combine my 2 3S Packs in series by either buying a harness or simply soldering them together correctly.

Then I’ll use the VGA port as an one plug solution by soldering it to the + and - leads from the balance plug, as it can be used for charging as well, like @Okami suggested.

That should work as a good solution, right?

Thanks so much guys

You have to ask @lowGuido, it’s his video. Maybe he can chime in with his input on this, because I have no idea.

Looks like you simply soldered the charging leads from the balance charger to the + and - of the balance leads? I thought the balance leads aren’t quite capable of handling all that voltage? That also seems like an easy solution. So you just have the balance lead plug and that’s it?

yes thats exactly what I did. no need to worry about the balance leads, they are rated much higher than the B6 can put out. I think from memory the balance leads are 22AWG which is about 7A max and the B6 can only put out 5A max which in practice is 2.4A max @ 6S. TLDR: don’t worry about it.
