Default Tc-1030 balance board?

Does anyone know of one I can use with this charger? I want to charge my lipos that have balance taps and this one won't do it without a balance board like the ones for the hyperion chargers. If anyone knows of a way to make one work post up. I have a trinity lipo balancer but it only puts out .74 amps and it takes forever to charge my 5000mah lipo.

You're going to have to buy one of these if you expect to balance charge with the TC-1030.

The Checkpoint comes with a 2S bullet harness to plug. You would need to either buy or make one for the equinox but they are available.

So with the equinox setup I can plug that in and I can use the balance taps that are on the batteries? I can use the controls on the tc-1030 to control charge flow and everything else?

If so I will put those on the order.

yup, i went with the equinox balancer with my tc-1030 and you can use the charger controls. you can also buy different adaptors for different balance plugs.

Thank you very much. I will be ordering here in the next week or so. I have been looking for something to do this for awhile. I should have just asked.
