18650 Batteries testing station – pt1.3
Part 1.3 : Charger/discharger completion… ish? So, the next step was to install the PSU and wire everything, which went rather well. The connector did fit super nicely in the slot designed for it and I opted for only putting 2 screws instead of 4 on the PSU since it is pretty solid like that. […]
