Losi Tap/Wiring --> Hyperion Tap/Wiring ?

INLINE V · 02-12-2009, 08:50 PM

I'm sure there has been a thread or two on here before asking a similar question but I can't seem find what I'm looking for. I have a few Losi LOSB1207 7.4V 1000mAh 2 Cell LiPos that I received for free. I'd love to use them but they have a Losi tap which isn't compatible with my Hyp EOS606i. My problem is I have a Lipo charger that utilizes Hyperion taps so I'm ready to snip off the Losi tap and pop on a Hyperion. How do I know what wires are what? Can anyone confirm what the Red, Blue and Black wires are on the Losi tap?

...and confirm what the red black and black wires are on the MaxAmps pack so I can convert the Losi tap to Hyperion.

Well lets see I can get you started. The Hyperion tap is like this:

Red, Black are cell one

Black then the last black are cell two.

So basically the red wire is attached to the positive tab on cell one, the first black wire is attached to the negative of cell one and the positive of cell two (those two tabs are hooked togethe) The last Black wire goes to the negative of cell two.

The only way to see how a Losi pack is done would be to find one that is cut open.

Speak of the devil...

Ok so it looks like on the Losi tap the red wire is attached to the positive of cell one(labeled P+), the black is attached to the negative of cell two(labeled B-), but the blue wire is attached to a spot labeled BM. I don't know what "BM" stands for but I assume that the blue is somehow attached to cell 1+ and cell 2-. I'll wait for your professional opinion. Thank you.

That really doesn't help at all. It's not definitive.

No not out of luck, I just can't tell anything with that stupid PC board on the end of the pack. I have a general idea, but I don't want to say with out being 100% positive.

It's a little late but the black wire is ground, the blue wire is pos cell1 and the red wire is pos cell 2 in this case. I just made a bunch of y harnesses and people want dang hyperions and now I have to get familiar with those...

So the hyperion uses the + first cell on the first pin, ground on second pin, then positive for each other cell and the last one has to be used? Thats a sick way of doing things.

I bought an adapter from maxamps web site and it works great only a couple of dollars shipped to boot.
