Reedy all-in-one balance charge leads

Reedy all-in-one balance charge leads

Team Associated introduce three new Reedy all-in-one balance charge leads for LiPo battery packs. First up are two 1S-2S leads usable for standard and saddle packs. They are available with 4mm or 5mm battery connectors and come with a saddle pack clip for the jumper wire. Each harness includes a port for the balance connector to be inserted when charging 1S batteries. This 1S connection provides more accurate voltage readings, which results in a better quality charge but the feature is not compatible with all chargers. For those who are using Reedy’s unique 4S battery, a separate charge harness has been created specifically for it as it feature three 2mm bullet-type connectors for the balance duties. All three harnesses come with 12-gauge wires, 4mm charger inputs, and an XH balance plug. A length of 55cm provides pit area flexibility and enough slack to charge conveniently inside LiPo safety bags.
