PROOF OF CONCEPT PROJECT
Complete solution for Li Ion batteries
Features:
Charge, discharge, amp hours count, test for short or open circuit, weak battery indicator, measure internal resistance.
- Charge:
TP4056 module (integrated), selectable current ~200/500/1000mA. TP4056 circuit is monitored by Arduino. - Discharge:
current up to 2000mA (step 20mA), PWM controlled. Internal resistance is calculated from battery voltage drop under load. - Capacity:
Battery gets fully charged, then discharged, mAh on selected current load is counted. - Recovery:
Deep discharged battery charge with 100mA current.
This is a revisited project originally developped by Akos Boda in 2022 (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5229303).
