Cool little site - RC Calculations

[SMP]

Came across this cool little site whilst trolling for parallel balance boards (http://www.progressiverc.com/parallel-charge-board-for-jst-xh-xt60.html)

I'm sure it's a bit basic but had a good time confirming visually series vs parallel Link looks scary but is fine.

those parallel charge boards look great on paper but are hard to use with more than a few batteries if your wires aren't very long, FWIW/FYI.

EPbuddy.com has parallel charge harnesses that are much easier to use.

I've used that board and the fma version..... that board in particular is tought o use and not fry. when you plug in teh balance cable, it's super easy to miss by a pin and shorts the board, fries the pcb. the fma on is alot more money and fussed al over the place, but even that one i've managed to screw up the balance part over 5s... whatever. The balance cable setups are nice especialy if you don't case the charger, but the bards work great and there not too bad to charge from with long or short cables

Wow.. EPBuddy ships FAST>>>>>>>>> Rcvd XT60 and Balance Hydra Cables...^^^

Unfortunately Thunder Power TP820CD manual says to contact them for information relative to multiple charging. I would think it would assigning/finding the right XT60/balance cables 1 to 1, 2 to 2 etc and programming the port per usual.... Anyone setup a TP charger for Multiple Batts??
