Bike Flasher

Hi There, Martin and others I did this bike flasher(V5) that I am planning to build. Please could someone confirm that this the best way of doing this? Optimized using as little current possible? Also I need to add time delay on switch before the unit goes into first flashing mode. Preventing the un...

Re: Visual LEDs for LiPO battery

Hi Martin Just to make sure. The V for one cell when fully charged is 4.2V. @ 3 volt per cell(18 volt total for 6 cell) the cell gets damaged and can explode. In a 6 cell LiPo pack(series connected) the total v will be 25.2 fully charged. The minimum recommended voltage that each cell should be drai...

Re: Visual LEDs for LiPO battery

Hi Martin, great apologies :!: . My comment " Played around with this and could not make it work' was not referring to your potential divider circuit. Meant I was trying the op-amp route replying to Steve, and that not working. Your circuit so far perfect. Tried on bread board and all fine so far. C...

Re: Visual LEDs for LiPO battery

Hi Steve, will appreciate your circuit, if you can over the weekend. Played around with this and could not make it work. Very rusted

Re: Visual LEDs for LiPO battery

Hi Martin This works just fine, much appreciated. Have so much to learn and great you sharing. Will implement your suggestion on PWM for flashing led’s. The RC heli's draw up to 50 A while flying. On a 6 cell LiPo(25.2V) flight time is 7 min's and the saving with PWM, I think, will not do much in th...

Visual LEDs for LiPO battery

HI Clever people I am trying to build a Lipo battery visual Status(watch Dog) with PIC I am a beginner and only started the hobby after 15 years again when I discovered flowcode. Attach my file. Need to attach a unit to a RC helicopter and have a visual(LED) display on the status of the LiPo battey....
