Re: Universal Battery Analyzer tool NLBA1
I think the use of the blade connectors, albeit are universal in nature, may be a thorn to use in real life. Are the interface connectors used by Apple (and others) not industry standard from TE, etc. ? Much like Molex, etc.
We attempted to use small flat blade screwdriver tips - not fun.
Saw another supplier on Aliexpress who offers small bridge boards to convert from terminal blocks to the battery connector for a proper snap on quick connect. That would be a nice to have feature here.
Even better would be to have the proper mating male pin connector + electronic mux so that once you select the battery pack, in your s/w - the mux maps to the proper pinout so no more guess work !!
Just select the target battery pack -> have the user confirm the details and accept responsibility -> your s/w can mux the pins to the proper pinout -> use.
I know some people have been designing adapters for NLBA1 to be able to connect batteries for MacBooks.
