I have four 4s packs, each with separate 4s balance connector, that I want to put together in series to make a 16s pack. Which board will I need to do that and how would I hook the four separate balance leads to it? I assume I would need to make some kind of 4-to-1 adapter cable?
Here is graphically what you need:
This just shows the balance connections. It is assumed each 4-cell block is already wired in series into a 16s configuration.

Thanks! I'm curious why are the pins 1 and 5 jumpered together on the balance connectors? With the packs connected in series, they'll effectively be connected on the other side of the connector.
