I ordered Two different Power Supplies just in case for back up. One Friday night,that will not be here until Saturday!Of course the Supernight which arrived in 2 days!
Durability and longevity is yet to be determined,so far so good on day #2! I expect my Third test result to follow suit. That should be done by early evening b/4 CAPO and I go on our hike.
There is another way to look at getting one NOW. If your doing a lot of capacity tests the worst that can happen is you lose $6.99 if it fails! On the other hand you can let Wolfdog be the Guinea Pig and see how durable and reliable it is. Then again, I may only run One or Two more CHARGE/TESTS in the next few months!
Confused?! YOU MAKE THE CALL! :person_facepalming:
Yep Woldog, so far you have been a good “Guinea Pig” with some good results. … :+1:
I am glad this appears to have been the problem. Kudos to you & your testing.
But me confused? Not sure what you are getting at…. but never in your wildest dreams am I confused about this.
And be most assured…… I will make the call when I get ready. Whether that be in 5 minutes or 5 years. It is not a though this is life or death ya’ know…….
It’s all good Wolfdog…. even if it does fail, you “took one for the team”. … :+1:
I’ll be the first to contribute to the “Reimburse Wolfdog Fund”…….
……………hopefully that will go better than the “Send ’teacher’ to China Campaign” has gone.
I I ever get a better one, It will be brand new! These are not cars we are getting where you know how many miles are on it and how old it is! That is my thinking………I would not want a used one,Hopefully these TWO classics I have will last a while!!
I am going to do a CRUDE temp. check when the batteries are around 4.0/4.10v w/ my maintenance thermometer probe!
I agree that is fine, but the batteries are not fully charged!That was @ 3.58v.
I just checked, it is @ 3.75v now and temp is 94F.
I do not expect it to go over 103F b/4 its done,just a guess. With my heat sink invention I am positive[just by feel compared to now] it won’t go past 88F
I will measure that next time I charge 4 X 18650 @ 1AMP.
