"hyperion balance cable connection"
You can use connections 1 to 8 (7 cells) on plug A.
And connection 1 to 2 for the 8th cell.
Or you can use connections 1 to 5 on both A and B as separate "12v" battery connections.
In both cases, pin 8 on the A connector, and pin 1 on the B connector will go to the same place on the battery."

So, I bought a pair of 4S balance cables for my pack/hyperion charger connection. I'm not sure about how to make these connections to my pack. Could someone please hold my hand
and explain with a bit more detail? TIA
BM:
Almost.
Theres 8 pins in each connector.
So starting from the right and counting towards the left (yes backwards) pin 0 is neg, then cell 1, 2, 3, 4 is the first socket. Then the same for the other 4 cells in the next on the left. So again 0 for neg, then 1, 2, 3, 4 again. You use 5 wires in each connector. As if you had 2 separate 4s batteries.
So, the two in reds above, go to the same place on the pack if its one big one.
Me:
I'm confused. On the Hyperion there's no 0 pin. First pin on right of A&B connectors starts with a 1. Assuming 1 is negative, and there are 10 wires total. Do I connect both positives and both negatives together on the battery? I'll stop there for now, and come back with how to connect the remaining. Working on posting a pic but it's not going so well
