Dear List,
I'm in the market for a self contained cell cycler that I can use on
my TS cells (LFP160's). I'd rather not pay too much - assuming you
can buy one off the shelf - and so wondered if anyone has come across
a simple open source set up? I imagined something like a 600W PC PSU,
a big relay, a large possibly fan cooled load resistor and 2 line LCD
display all controlled by an arduino or pic-based controller.
In terms of spec, I suppose something like 10A in and out would do. I
know this would take a couple of days per cell but I'm not in a hurry
and really I'd only want o use it very rarely and even then only on
suspect cells. Of course quicker is better but I don't want to have
to mess around too much with massive cooling needs if the power in and
out is too high.
