Multiple balancers?

Hey all,

I've been running the MagicShine stock batteries, and as we have all seen, it seems one cell goes bad and the whole pack loses it's shiz.

They run Series-parallel 4 cells with a balance circuit between the two parallel stacks. Seems one cell in the parallel pair goes bad.

I've seen Batteryspace.com sell the balancing circuit for like $5. Seems to me you could use two balance circuit boards for 4 cells, or 3 circuits for 6 cells and each cell would be properly regulated and none of the cells would be left for dead. Then, attach the load/charge side of the circuits in parallel.

Any reason why this wouldn't work?
