Podunk Steam

Just tell Trump I voted for him when he wins. Seriously, thank you for the efforts made for all of us.

Very much appreciated, thank you! I recently got ahold of an Istick 40TC and charging's making me crazy is where my question was based from. It's been long enough since I used eGos I'd forgotten one of my own prerequisites. The power delivery I very much enjoy but the charging has me sending it off to my partner, not before I get measurements off it for a little tweaking though.

Very Nice! My flavor! Battery mah for each if you wouldn't mind and charging time by way of USB? I'm still waiting on my 3D print only to find I should have had it done through a less expensive print company, Sculpteo's new to me.

Here you go. 3 x 18650 is possible as well.

I used FreeCAD to change the files over to SLT and than imported into Blender 2.75a, whacked the scale all to heck but it can be recovered. From there I go to DAE exports so the size is locked.

I've finally narrowed down the plan to a Blender hack of the Beta Box print for a dual 18650. This was a request from a customer. Edit: (That didn't sound good! ) A learning experience for sure with this one anyway! If I get it right this should be the way it will work when finished. Anybody with any spare finger that wouldn't mind crossing them, it would be appreciated! STL to DAE really goofs with the size, buttons still have to be scaled and attached along with a few other parts but it's getting there. Edit: Almost finished tonight but I started dotting my Ts and crossing my eyes so it's better left to wait.

Outstanding! I had a customer request before I even knew 2 X 18650 could even be possible.

Much appreciated KTMRider! The 7 was about half that, it's just a patch for now. May not be your flavor but one of my rides is a 2001 KTM 640 LC4 Enduro, with plenty of aftermarket. It's a pig on single track but a serious kick in the pants most everywhere else.

It's been so long since I booted into Vista it went belly up when trying to update the system, 40% restart, 40% restart. I'd be up to speed here if I did my updates more often I guess. Some driver got lost "CIN" error, machines been resurrected too many times already! Scrubbed it and full booted Linux for a dual boot Windows 10 Linux later. I just bought a HP stream 7 tablet as a dedicated Windows device for flashing circuit boards and dealing with Garmin products for the time being. Edit: Still falling further behind. My only near suitable USB adapter turned out to be a mini, not a micro as needed. Living in Podunk again I'm waiting for shipping.

I could swear it was posted in this forum at one time, no luck finding it. Found it in the manual page 10. " manufactured by Schurter , part number 3413.0332.22"

VHB tape should work.

Nice mods! I'm hoping I haven't gotten too ambitious with my plans being my 200 showed up today, it all just got real!

Linux wouldn't hurt me any. I'm not much of a Windohs fan.

I'm no battery expert but from what I understand the 200s low end is 9 volt. The LIfe batteries don't sag as much under load but there isn't a whole lot of space between the 9 and 9.9 volts. They do a 12.8 Volt in that size?

Thank you John! Edit:For anyone else that may be wondering.

Great! Thank you John! I do have a thermal pathway planned with aluminum posts for mounting of the board press fit into a brass structure which will connect to the 510s mounting, hoping to pull some extra grounding for the 510 with this as well. The USB is a question I haven't asked being the short term Yihi had given the SXJs bringing the thought to mind. Any guesstimataions on longevity?

I'm bouncing around a few ideas for an enclosure and ventilation has come to mind so than comes the thought of dust and moisture entering the enclosure. How would the 200s be set as far as resilience to dust and moisture? I've gave my battery major head space and hope to build something with serious longevity between servicing/battery swaps anyway.

Thanks Mamu! Just about what I guesstimated. I think the 40C 1000mah lipo pack should serve me well.

What kind of run time are you getting at what ohms resistance? I have one of these on the way.

Edited my post being it could have been misleading.

I've just been planning on soldering one of these guys to the board.

Do Lipos bend much? I'm kind of considering making my own quick change lipo hard packs from another extrusion although the jury is still out. I thought the Dovpo GX 200 was a dead ringer for a DNA200 mod but I missed a measurement and doubt I'll be going that direction now. The battery I have on the way just makes it a bit tight. I'm sure there'll be a few variations on 3D prints going around that should be cool.

Still lurking the ECF here, well there anyway. This is great to see, a place to exchange and gather information, Thanks Evolv!
