I have one of these batteries I’m running in my Losi 5ive B I just built

It has 2 identical battery connections and a balance plug

My question is.. is there a purpose for the 2 identical plugs or could I splice them together and change the end so that it will plug into the MTXL power harness? Is this a bad idea? Or would it be ok to do this

Ok. Gotcha... I wasn’t sure on that... I do have the appropriate charger for it and follow the use and care instructions

With that said I could just change the plug for the receiver to match the harness for the MTXL and everything will be fine correct?

:unsure:Why would you charge with the other plug when you have the lipo balance plug there with thicker gauge cable?

The 5ive T 1.5 came with a balace charger ( that i actually still use).

The other lipo charger i have ( Onyx 235) will not charge through the balance plug. The balance plug connects to a balance board that connects to the charger. Battery gets charged using the jr plug. It connects to a squid that connects to the charger.

My Onyx 235 is pretty old...but it still works...I don't have a need to replace the thing yet.
Some newer chargers might have the balance ports built into the charger...no need for the balance board then....but I don't know...I never looked into those.
I do prefer to use the small Dynamite charger though...less setup.
