Currently, FMA manufactures adapters that will interconnect up to 6s battery packs. In order to charge packs larger than 6s using the Cellpro 10S charger, you are required to adapt Cellpro balancing tap connectors to your packs. Click here for instructions on wiring 2s to 10s packs using Cellpro balancing tap pigtails, PN's CPBP7 and CPBP6P-10.

Alternately, on battery packs larger than 6s that implement the wiring scheme used on Thunder Power packs, you may use two adapters (PN:CP10S-TP/PQ6S) from FMA to charge one pack. One adapter must be plugged into channel one on the Cellpro 10s charger, while the second adapter must be plugged into channel two. Each of the two balancing tap connectors on the pack will then plug into the separate FMA adapters based on the number of series cells in the pack. Example: You have a 10s Thunder Power pack wired as (2) 5s packs in series. The balancing tap connector from the first 5s pack will plug into the 5s port on the adapter and channel one on the CP10s. The balancing tap from the second 5s series pack will plug into the 5s port on the second adapter on channel two of the CP10s. In this example, the second pigtail coming off of each of the CP10S-TP/PQ6S adapters does not get connected to anything. This second pigtail, labeled "Connect for 6s Only" is required only when a single, 6s pack is connected to the Cellpro 10s charger.

Adapters for Cellpro PowerLab 8

PowerLab 8 Adapters in General: The Cellpro-to-"Other Brand" adapters for PowerLab 8 will interconnect 2s to 6s battery packs. The Cellpro 4s adapters and the Cellpro 10S adapters listed on this page may be used with the Cellpro PowerLab 8 by connecting through the basic Cellpro adapter that comes standard with every PL8. The Cellpro PowerLab 8 adapters listed on this page will not interconnect with the Cellpro 4s or Cellpro 10S chargers. The Cellpro-to-Cellpro brand adapter for PowerLab 8 will support 2s to 8s for REVOLECTRIX brand batteries. Therefore, if your battery pack is not REVOLECTRIX brand, and it is > 6s, you are required to adapt Cellpro balancing tap connectors to your packs.

Standard Adapters: Cellpro PowerLab 8 standard adapters will permit charging one pack at a time either in combination with the discharge leads (for maximum output current), or for node only charging support (no discharge leads required) for currents up to 3A. The part numbers for the standard adapters are listed below along with a list of compatible battery packs.

Parallel Adapters: FMA has designed Safe Parallel Adapters to be used with the Cellpro PowerLab 8. Parallel adapters supports one battery pack at a time and may be daisy-chained with other Safe Parallel Adapters. Designed to support multiple parallel pack, node-plus-discharge (high current) charging applications. Multiple, on-board SMT polyfuses (automatic resetting fuses) protect the adapter and charging circuitry from damage from wrong interconnections, reverse polarity, etc. The part numbers for the standard adapters are listed below along with a list of compatible battery packs.
