Default Charging saddle lipo with v-balance

How do you guys charge your saddle lipo's with a balancer?

In my lrp lipo's I have a connection for the balancer but in my saddle (vampire) lipo's I have no connection?

Thanks for the help.

I've seen the last picture but the trakpower saddle lipo has a 2mm connection. The vampire saddle don't have that?

Logically, if they're 2s1p, then each part of the saddle is a 1s lipo, therefore, by charging each one as a 1s lipo, then they should be balanced. AFAIK balancing just ensures that each cell in the pack is charged to the same voltage, and discharged to the same voltage.

Feel free to pick holes in that
