[Adding more welcome screens?]

Im sure you can guess at what we are getting at with having 5-10 welcome screens with adjustable delays, lol. If compressing them using a not very esoteric format would make it possible, it would be really neat feature with lots of fun ways to expliot.

[Let's see your 200's!]

I moved on from my beta, looks alot better now. Still on those 18650s. 

  

[What battery are you using/planning to use?]

Batteries in parallel balance each other naturally. This means that if you have, for example, a 3S3P, you won't be able to directly monitor each parallel set. But with natural balance, all cells in the parallel set will always read the same. If you have a bad cell, the whole set will read low. 

[Hello!]

Hello, I am Walter from Ft. Worth TX. I am the owner of Ursimian LLC. I don't make many mods, but I like to make sure they are all something "different". Other than my ZNA that lasted for two months (dammit!), I have always been a mech fan. Recently I have decided to delve into regulation, and I like it alot better these days. Currently I am running my alpha 3x18650 dna 200 mod (lol, i promise I didnt use that soldered pack) and have just finished up the beta group for it as well.

This chip is really a step beyond, GJ guys.

[Soldering tempatures?]

I always solder temperature sensitive items with as chunky of a tip as will fit in the space I am soldering, and my iron all the way up to 480. Hot and fast, so the solder points heat up fast instead of the rest of the item.

[What battery are you using/planning to use?]

I'll pass on lifepo cells then. I was considering using them, even with the lower mah/gram.

[What battery are you using/planning to use?]

This should give you guys fits, lol.

(I dropped the pack for a sled, it was just to test)
 

[USB Charging]

There aren't any 10v batteries that would be applicable. They are all multicell setup. The balance lead basically adds a tap at the +,-, and each cell bridge. This allows you to read individual cells as well as shunt power around to keep the cells in balance during charging.

[IMR or only li-poly]

I kept it simple and used springs that will collapse on a short. It wouldnt protect the chip, but it doesn't protect against reversed batteries shorting against each other.

James said:

The reason for an accessory board is to provide reverse voltage protection for each cell. Otherwise you could damage your board and/or batteries in the event you put one in backwards.

[IMR or only li-poly]

With IMR, you build it out like you are making a lipo pack, i.e. making your own balance leads. It works great.

18650x3, with balance leads properly installed. 2500mah
