I admire your hard work, your patience, intelligence, and your dedication in sharing your skills. I am a lazy dog that does not have the patience and time and would rather buy a finished product. cheers and more power Master Sorin!!

When you consider the range of tools used here, the result is pretty good.
Nice with a DIY video without the use of CNC, 3D printers and other expensive machines.
Good job, and good explanation.

When I first saw it . I thought it was 3d print! Nice job. Mine takes up about 1 sq meter! And only charges 12 cells ! And discharges 3 cells. Nice! Have you thought about using some thermal sensors in a silicone gel or something to get the charger/dischager to shut off if the cells get hot? I was getting up mid night for batt change. And put a cell in back ward twice. I started using more light when changing cells. Trying to charge and test 100's & 100's of fast as I can takes a long time. So I got up mid night for cell change for two months plus. I have 98 to go. Then time to get more! I only need about 10, 000 cells with 2.5-3.0 ah each. (2600-3000 mah each.) In a 29.4v 7s bank. It's gonna take time!!!! I'm only like 1/100th through that at best. I guess about 5k cells would work. But what's wrong with excess!!! Nice video!!

Very nice, especially when using that hi-precision high-end soldering iron :P Great job!

[jagardina]

Very cool project. I probably would have tried to make it possible to take it apart and change stuff, all the glue is somewhat permanent. But when I first saw it I did not think it was wood.

I accidentally bumped into this video and had to watch the entire thing. You have seriously impressive skills, nice work and nice video. Thanks!

[farhadrahman]

Dear Sorin, your videos are always helpful to learn something new. Very good job and you are really awesome.

[HBPowerwall]

Well done bud! Great tool that can help the community

[GeekMustHave]

Thank you for this video. I liked your approach to the charge/discharge issue. I don't know which I hate more, hot glue on the fingers or two fingers stuck together with super glue. Keep broadcasting!!

I just love this 18650 charger project even more than your last one. When I first saw the thumbnail to this video I though it was a textured 3D print. Nice work! Again, you've got balls of steel to solder smd circuit boards with a 100 watt soldering gun. Oh, and now subscribed and rang the bell.

I appreciate the humor you add in you videos

[DrZipZwan]

Great video as Always!! I think that everybody will agree that the best part was about the "spaghetti sandwich". (7:18)
dont get me wrong all the DIY project is great !!!
Sorin, keep creating us amazing projects!

[lrshekhar]

Simply GREAT
What a fine quality discription !

Each and every point is cleared.
Thanks dear
Again simply GREAT

[floringrek]

Este o super idee !! Așa suntem noi români. 🙌🙌

You can replace the SOT23 protection IC with a FS312F with a 2.9V cutoff instead of your typical DW01A

[sssteve]

I like the way you work clean and best of all is your explanation step by step AAA.

[davidkinuthia]

Man have been looking for a good charger for my lithium batteries and you nailed it sir thanks

[horstalinludwig]

Un proiect excelent! Felicitări Sorine. Circuitele de încărcare le.am testat si eu, sunt foarte încântat de ele. Cred ca ma voi apuca de proiectul asta in concediu.

[MrJozza]

Nice work; the case looks really good, much better than a plastic box.
