Hello all
This evening I finished my charging and discharching board for 18650 cells.
I can now charge 16 cells at once and discharge 4 cells at once. Tomorrow I'll post a picture of the setup I made.
I used tp4056 circuits and cell holders for the charging bit.
The discharger is a chinese opus knock off, but it's doing it's job.
As a power supply I'm using a recycled pc power supply I recycled from an old PC I had lying around and didn't throw away (you never know you can use it I always say to the misses) To convert it I used the good old youtube to learn it
As my first adventure I'm going to build a portable power pack to charge my drone lipo's on the field. All accessories for the build have been ordered in china and are starting to come in.
The final goal is to get my house off grid. It'll be a very very long road, but I'll try and keep you posted.
Regards,
Ivo
