Of note, the Onyx + Balancer cost 80+40=$120. So you save $30 over the Hyperion. And if you add another Onyx then you save even more because one external balancer is enough when you use "quality matched" LiPo packs...
Yeah, I only balance once in a while anyway. My Hyperions (I have an EOS5iDP as well) get me to 8.44-8.45 though.
