Just signed up first, I will just work down the list. May be some who drops out later.
It’s been a while since I filled out the form, just getting up to speed on the recent progress and I wanted to make sure I still have a spot in line @Samau18 can you verify? Thanks!
Sorry for the wait, we are starting this week. And just checked, you are on the list.
Hi Samau, thats great news. Could you check I am on the list also? It was a while ago I signed up!
Good news production has started and first board is a success
Amazing
What type of testing will be done this time around? Do you guys test certain ‘max’ amps for charging and discharging?
Of maybe this was the test, I don’t know
E: And @Samau18 can I get a verification that I am also on the list?
Awesome! Love the test jig, looks slick. Exciting things are happening!
That’s perfect timing
@Samau18 can you tell me my # on the list? Do you think all boards will make it?
Haha hope so, will post the final yield asap
Oh we don’t check the max amps, as it may damage the board. Charging, load, can bus, usb test . Danny has an internal diagnostic on the latest tools
Sam
A question for everyone: I’ve come to understand that the biggest potential for damage comes from charging so is there a guide out there that can show me how to limit the amount of cells that balance at a time or something like that?
Someone on here has done this before, I just can’t remember
Impressive that you build a custom tester! But for 200 PCBs it’s definitely worth it!
Super nice setup now I want one as well.
Are you involved in the process with Samau at all? Any insight youre able to give?
Yes we continuously communicate on the progress, and what components to buy and I try to help with making diagnostics to test the balancing circuits and stuff. Since this batch now is larger we try to make the testing a bit more friendly as well.
This is such a great esk8 mutualism story, fair play to you Danny & Sam for making this work well through problems.
Any idea when shipping will start?
We are testing them still, invoicing and if the week. Should be able to start mailing next week.
Sam
Great news, hows it looking in terms of ISL stability/accuracy?
