I made up a short link cable for my saddle pack that has a small corally type tube wired in to it to take the balancing plug that comes on that balancer. The small corally plug just needs to connect to the link wire between the cells of the saddle if that makes sense?!!?

I got a small corally type tube off ebay...attached it via a short peice of wire to one end of the link cable...and put some heatshrink/insulation tape around the outside of the tube to insulate it...don't have a pic to hand I'm affraid!

Works a treat

Can't find the seller on my ebay account now, but did find a seller in hong kong selling the small tubes...think they are "2mm tube connectors" or similar as a search on the bay! And it does assume your ok with soldering your own cables up!

I had same problem. PM Stuey on here for the link to a website with the correct adapter on it. Mine were Vampire Saddles with the same 3 pin balancing lead.
