Case for LVC desulphator unit

thingiverse

This is a case for the LCV lead acid battery desulphator unit based on an original circuit designed and published by Alastair Couper in the American HomePower magazine in 2000, view http://www.homepower.com/view/?file=HP77_pg84_Couper . A kit for this unit is available at: http://www.courtiestown.co.uk/index.php/battery-desulphators/kits/12v-lvc-basic-kit.html A full description of the unit is found here: http://www.courtiestown.co.uk/media/custom/upload/File-1401097440.pdf I added a "window" so you can see the LED better. This works well with transparent PLAs (most are). The LVC desulphator circuit really works well, and it's best to leave it connected to the battery for many days. I always disconnect it from the car circuit, then add a trickle charger to avoid draining the battery. Print Settings: Rafts: No Supports: No Notes: If you have problems with warping, use brim supports. PLA is used here, but there's no reason ABS wouldn't also work. Instructions: Very straight ahead print. The case is snap fit, and can be secured by M3 countersunk screws in the base - break the thin layer covering them first.
