Very clean build you have Rob. Eventually I might nab some of your ideas for my own turn signal/brake setup.

Well last night was eventful and not all at once.

Cut the LVC boards in half very carefully, and took them to my brother to solder wires onto them. When doing that, he found that one of the boards had fried two of the main traces. He fixed those, but when I got home and connected a battery , the third main trace on the board fried.

I've since ordered some balance adapter cables from progressive RC. I'll miss out on the LVC function, but I've set the Cycle Analyst to shut down at about 3.3V per cell, so hoping I'll avoid over discharging anything. I'll still be balance charging every charge. My brother is going to look into fixing the boards again once he's moved and settled into a new job.

Did some work on the controller plate - cut down the CA mounting tube to just barely fit the CA, and rounded the corners on the plate to make it less scary.
