Objectives

1. Build on top of Micah’s progress and push the limits of module design

2. Make quality documentation

To-do:

1. Verify battery regulations and our pack spec | June 2nd (KOSTUBH)

2. Assemble v7 | June 16th

   1. Spot-weld nickel strips

   2. Add voltage taps (figure out how quantity, and where)

      1. on cells for SoC algo testing

      2. on groups for balancing

   3. Thermistor placement, quantity (we need to iterate, I don’t think the plan below is good)

   4. : need to source all the components listed above

3. Testing procedure | June 30th

   1. DAQ setup

   2. Charge/DIscharge profiles

4. CAD Module Iteration | July 14th

5. Build v8 | July 21st

6. Test | July 28th

7. TBD
