One little problem with my build..
I'm using a voltage monitor that has a parallel balance adapter. I have this connected to two of my packs, specifically two that are in parallel on one side of a larger series loop with another parallel set. The problem pops up when I try to plug in two balance leads from either side of the series loop. Sparks! It looks like the damage is being done to the 14.8v pin and the ground pin of the second battery I plug in. Its not a problem with that battery, since when I plug them in while off the loop they are fine, and the loop is stable otherwise (without any balance leads connected or just from one side of the Series).
Any ideas? I'm also quite sure that I didn't try to plug the connector in backwards.
