Background

For a number of years I've been trying to come up with a low cost plug for the BA-5590/U family of batteries and now have a working prototype.
This is larger than the planned size because it's has a lot of jumper options to allow making about any type of cable you can think of, for example:
  • 12 Volt output (shown)
  • 24 Volt output
  • 24 Volt Charging
  • 12 Volt Charging
  • 4 wire output (two wires for each battery side)
  • Dual voltage split output.  Three wires, +12, gnd, -12
The next version will have a dedicated PCB for "12 Volt Output" and another for "24 Volt Output".
