The PSII controller has internal provisions (a female socket of the orange JST variety) for connecting such a thing.


I was a part of that discussion and thought about looking for a PSII launch controller. But I've got so many others, including one or two of the funky Quest controllers that use 9V batteries. Those are my least favorite batteries to buy, but the mod to add an external battery is pretty easy using another 9V battery clip. Quest offers an external battery harness, but I have a clip and may just fabricate one to use with one of my LiPos. Or maybe not ...
