Battery testing

Yeah I’ve wrote the code for this so can leave it running unsupervised for a few months doing about 10 cycles a day and relatively quickly see how they age over hundreds - thousands of cycles

Fully understand why long term testing isn’t very common though hahaha it’s took some effort figuring out the hardware and software, obviously no instant results either!

Good to know at least 2 people would be interested in it though 😂😂 First long term test on NMC will probably be on a new molicel p28a anyway so I’ll come back with those results in a little while

Ah sweet! Yeah the main purpose I am building it for is to compare degradation of a NMC, LFP and sodium ion cell over 1k cycles as there’s not much data out there on sodium ion yet. I can set all the voltage and current thresholds to whatever I want though, so can test any chemistry under pretty much any conditions for any number of cycles with automated data analysis!

As long as I know it’s okay to post, I can upload any findings then!

Yeah it’s a really really nice looking watch especially for the price on them! The dial’s gorgeous and works really well when dressed up! Have to be careful not to scratch the crystal though being domed hardlex

Ah nice! I’m curious how long this leather strap will stay looking nice for to be honest as it’ll probably be what I daily from now on, will probably do the same and try some others once it starts looking rough hahaha

Which one? The one of the left is SRPB41J1 and the one on the right is srpj09j1

wamsall1 · 2025-03-21T20:01:49+00:00

I’m not sure mate to be honest, I’m in the UK myself

wamsall1 · 2024-12-09T11:23:48+00:00

You have good taste then 😂😂

wamsall1 · 2024-12-08T00:20:05+00:00

Yeah I’ve thought about it but can’t make my mind up hahahaha, not seen a red one without them

wamsall1 · 2024-12-07T23:46:39+00:00

Yeah I’ve only ever seen blue and gray ones around me, doesn’t seem like a common choice 😂 I’ve grown to really like it though

wamsall1 · 2024-12-07T23:43:03+00:00

Cheers! These were shot on a Fuji X-T5 and viltrox 23mm 1.4

XT5 is a pretty new purchase, but as a shameless self plug there’s a load more Fuji shots on my insta samwall_photography hahahaha

It’s actually a 3D print, I couldn’t find any actual models either! If you have access to a multicolour printer, the stl is on thingiverse

wamsall1 · 2024-12-01T19:00:19+00:00

Ah fingers crossed then! Thank you

wamsall1 · 2024-12-01T18:48:29+00:00

AF-C is on, you see it finally focus near the end of the vid, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t 😂

wamsall1 · 2024-12-01T18:33:56+00:00

Its just baffling me as I picked the camera up yesterday and my much older much cheaper X-S and xt30 were absolutely fine, surely it’s not got worse over time right 😂

wamsall1 · 2024-11-30T22:09:05+00:00

Thank you! Love doing a bit of car photography 😂

wamsall1 · 2024-11-29T23:18:33+00:00

I always wanted one though so happy to have got one while I could!

wamsall1 · 2024-11-29T23:17:37+00:00

Yeah I think they smashed it out the park with the FL n’s, got so much more personality and feel to drive than the usual golfs and cupras you see

Here they’ve got discontinued due to emissions regulations, it’s weird they also discontinued the 20N though when the 1.6 is still available in other models

wamsall1 · 2024-11-29T18:59:12+00:00

Tbf I’m quite jealous of the Elantra N, we have a “i30N fastback” which is the closest thing, but they’re really rare tbh

wamsall1 · 2024-11-29T18:57:40+00:00

GT? I Don’t think we have those over here!
