Default Power from battery balance plug?

Is it possible to use a 3S batteries balance plug to power the driver (9-12v) for my glow wire?

If so, how do I go about it.

Thanks..

tap into the red and black wires on the balance plug, that will give you pack voltage, if you want 2s voltages tap into the red wire for positive and the 2nd wire in on the other side of the plug

That's how I get the power for my night rig. I've been doing it for a couple of years and never had an incident.

Experience is something you gain only after you need it.
I wouldn't mind social media so much if it didn't involve people.
