Also a double PCB with 3A limit Protection Circuit Module (PCB) for 7.4v Li-ion (18650/18500) Battery Packs (2Round)
I definitely agree with the idea of adding protection. I just do it with a simple zener cutoff circuit. Also the NoEgo's cut off at 3.5V. For a 3 cell pack I will have to run them down unprotected to see how they drain to figure out a safe zener voltage ratting to use. Using a simple 9.6 V base will be too low as the cell closest to the negative will drain more so it could run lower than 3.2V wile the one on the positive side is still around 3.5V. I am guessing 10V ~ 10.2V cutoff for 3 cells should be good.
Hi Ham .. just an observation here .. unless you want to carry around a big clunky box full of ni-cads, the only way to get 4.8v is with a VV. They make 3.3, 5, etc regs but 4.8? Not to my knowledge. Just cause you make a VV doesn't mean that you need to constantly change voltages (this is a common misconception). The whole idea is so you can fine-tune it to your own "sweet spot". Then you never need to touch the adjustment (until you want to try out some new atty or carto, that is). IMHO

....... Yeah, they're big and clunky - my current PV is a 4AA box with a 2AA box glued to it to hold the switch, LED and atty connector - but I kinda like it that way, as it definitely prompts a lot of "what the $(&^ is THAT?" questions and gives me an excuse to evangelize......

Get a DoD dripper setup to put on top, people leave you alone, "umm, crazy person -- very bad medicine!!")
And they don not have to be big and clunky, flashlight mod is possible and very easy, and
it keeps nurse Crachet from sticking needles in me.![]()

LOL I'm working on both... managed to get up over the 25 post mark now, and am busy working on the plans for my next modit's funny, I never knew about the ECF Veteran thing on the day of my anniversary (yesterday) and was sad to find I didn't quite qualify... I'll get there shortly though!

Mad modded her stationary Exercise Bike to a generator to run her pass through.
Now all my Patients get their check up and Exercise all in one visit.

...to get hambone up to par!
I'm more of a double-bogey playerOooh that gives me another idea... a combo PV/putter... or maybe a PV golf tee... hmmm, wonder if I'd have enough room for a booster in a tee?
