    OK, so I use the left 3 pins closest to the SD card slot. That wasn't clear in the directions. Thanks for clarifying this as I thought I bought the wrong cable for the 3s batteries. And lipoconnectionsolutions hooked me up with a 24v power supply. You guys here have been a big help here...

    I have a SMC 2s battery that I needed for an Arrma Voltage car. It has a smaller balance cable connector than the icharger s6 charger has. Do I need another adapter to connect it to the charger? What connector is this on the battery. The icharger s6 has a XH balance port.

    I agree. I thought they had that service but that must have been on of the other sites I was looking at. It is tempting to buy one with another connector but then I would need to buy the EC5 connector pieces as well. I am unfamiliar with the connector types shown in the cooling fan photo. It...

    What does the fan connect to? Do I need another adaptor, if so what kind.

    Nice! Unfortunately the battery I want is out of stock. It is the 3S 5000mAmh with EC5 connector. I really don't want to change out the leads due to time and my poor soldiering skill. How often do they restock?

    I wanted to buy this Hot Rod Racing MH550TE01 motor heat sink and it comes with bare leads that says should be hooked up to the receiver. What connector do I need to buy that would connect to the receiver. What is it called? The receiver is a Spektrum SPMSR6100AT and this is the Receiver...

    Does the iCharger s6 or x6 have this capability? Can you explain why this is useful or what it does. Are there any more sales that I should be looking out for during Black Friday. I am looking to buy the Tenacity DB Pro, 2x Liperios batteries, the PSU you linked to, and some of extension...

    What are the pluses and minuses of going with a dual charger like the iCharger 308Duo versus the iCharger s6 and using a paraboard like this one from RC Buddy. This paraboard has male XT30 connectors. I can't find a female XT30 to male EC5 connector or adapter. Only one I saw was on eBay...

    Thanks for collecting this data. Wow, that is some huge variation from the specifications. Liperior it is then. Are you going to be testing any gensacearespammers batteries? Now the question is when will the 3S 65C 5000mAh EC5 batteries come back in stock. How is the customer service at Horizon...

    Ok you sold me. I have read good things about Liperior Lipos. I see that the balance lead cables are mentioned as 6S. Does that mean that is the maximum number of lipos that can be used for that cable. If I am running 3s, I will be OK?

    So generally when companies say male or female they are referring to the pins and not the connectors? It is frustrating because often times I can't see the pins in the pictures and the descriptions are not adequate. So male pins will come in a female connector but this is generally called...

    Can you help me understand which devices come with male or female ends. Does the battery have the male end? Does the charger have the female end?

    1) Does the battery pack have the male connector? 2) Is it good to get anti-spark XT60 or XT90 connector extension cables by Amass? I can't seem to find an extension with the anti-spark female end. 3) I only have a 40w soldiering iron. Will I need a 200w or 300w soldiering gun to soldier EC5...

    That makes sense about the extensions. That is good advice. I will make my own cables then with some connectors. I see, I didn't realize the battery had two connectors. My old Ni-cad batteries only had one. So for the balance leads, one end goes from the charger to the battery? Is this a...

    This link is not working for the balance lead extension cable. What is the purpose of these. I thought the icharger x6 has a balance cell options. Also to confirm. The icharger x6 has a XT60 connector that can connect to an EC5 battery with this EC5 adapter. The batteries I am buying will...

    OK, so the Junsi iCharger X6 battery charger does not come with EC% or IC5 connectors? Will these work? EC5 Connector Does this need to be a female or male connector? I can't tell which one is shown in the link, it doesn't say on the website. I was looking at the Liperior batteries too and...

    The kids have decided to get Losi Tenacity DB Pro's. A couple of questions. 1) Can any mAh battery be used with this car as long as it fits? 2) Can any "C" rating battery be used? 3) Is a battery with a IC5 connector compatible with a EC5 connector on the car. 4) are there any extra cords I...
