Default iCharger 456 Duo balance board

I’m looking for info on what balance board actually works with the iCharger 456duo. The manual includes a picture of one as an optional accessory, but there is no part number of other identifying issue.

I also can’t seem to find the actually website for Junsi/iCharger. The charger has a sticker with hillrc.com on it, but that website doesn’t load. I’m about ready to return this and find another charger. Probably one that actually has company support behind it. Pretty disappointed with such an expensive charger.

Basically you can use any balance board.

I already ordered two of the JUN-BAL-XH-8 balance boards but the charger connector is too large. The 456duo has 7 pins and this cable has 9. Plus the connector is keyed while the chargers balance port isn’t. Might just be a manufacturers thing, but I’m new to lipo and not sure.

You need balance board for 6s. You got one for 8s. Return those and get one for 6.

The Lipo thing can be confusing.

Thanks! Yeah I’ve been out of the hobby for nearly a decade. Things have definitely changed since the days of nitro being king it seems.

Probably should have mentioned that in your 1st post.
