Default Balancing a LRP 5300 40c lipo

Just got myself an LRP 5300 40c stick pack lipo

Its the 1st time I tried to charge it tonight on my E Station Bantam BC6 charger.

I`ve got the Trakpower charging / balancing lead because I was using Trakpower 4900.

Trying to use this lead for the new lipo the very small balancing does not it in properly at all, I can just get 1mm in.

1. Would this still balance properly using it like this ?
2. Is there a way round this ?

Many Thanks Brett

Hi Pete, yup thats the one.

The Charging leads i`ve got are the :

Product ItemNr: TP2S-BC6
Price: £3.50
Description: This lead enables the balancer of the Bantam BC6 to connect to TrakPower packs.

Just would be a bit happier if the balancing lead fitted properly rather than just trying to wedge it in the top.

Have any clever Ooplers worked out a way to get round this.

Don`t suppose something is available to buy to fit it the balancing port ?

A lead is available that changes reduces the diameter of the center balancing pin. unfortunately the 2mm gold connector diameter is not consistent throughout the world!
The adaptor lead is TP2MMADT
