HXT4mm charge marker

myminifactory

I secure the rings over the battery contacts of lipos with HXT-4mm connectors following a charge, only fully charged batteries displaying visible markers. The rings seal off the contacts and are withdrawn prior to use, making it impossible to overlook removing the markers. This straightforward system ensures I can easily identify which batteries require recharging after returning from a field operation. I'm contemplating printing the rings in various colors to denote storage batteries that have been fully charged, improving organization and efficiency. Although this concept is still under consideration, it appears promising. The markers are both rapid and effortless to produce. The printed rings shown in the images were created with 0.3 layer height settings. For alternative connector options, I've designed another variant for XT60 connectors available at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:700056. Additionally, I've developed a design for JST connectors that can be found at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:701473
