present, giving us an accurate representation of one cell contained in the pack.

ˆ33. Install R21, 47K ohm [yellow-violet-orange].

ˆ34. Install DIP switch S1 (D)ual (I)nline (P)ackage. Make sure that the switchable contacts face toward the outside of the circuit board, allowing for easy changing of number of cells to charge.

ˆ35. Install 47K ohm resistors R19, R18, R17, R15, R13, R8, R6, and R4 [yellow-violet-orange]. Pay extra attention in soldering not to create any solder “bridges” between circuit traces.

ˆ36. Install R24, 47K ohm [yellow-violet-orange].

ˆ37. Install R27 and R26, both .5 ohm ½ watt [green-black-silver].

ˆ38. Install R2, 10 ohm [brown-black-black].

ˆ39. Install R23, also 47K ohm [yellow-violet-orange].

ˆ40. Install R25, 1K ohm [brown-black-red].

ˆ41. Install R11, 10K ohm [brown-black-orange].

ˆ42. Install R20, 10K ohm [brown-black-orange].

ˆ43. Lastly, install the provided hookup wire (red to the +V, black to the - V) into the circuit board. Due to numerous types of battery packs used, this “two wire “ type of hookup is as far as we go. Many types of battery holders can be found quite reasonably priced at your local electronics store. Please understand that it was nearly impossible for us to predict the type of pack that was to be charged with this kit.

ˆ44. Since the S2 switch that was previously installed comes from the factory as a “toggle” switch but our application uses a “pushbutton” input, we’ll need to make a small modification to the mechanics of the switch to suit our purpose.

Locate the switch “guide pin” on switch S2. With a small pliers, gently lift the pin and rotate it so it does not remain in the toggle “groove”. See the accompanying diagrams for help.
