It cannot be emphasized too strongly, that you are
experimenting with DEADLY voltages, and many
unknowns and assumptions, any of which could
be incorrect, and cause severe damage to persons,
or expensive property. You assume ALL the liability.
Also, if you are not competent to do this kind of
experimentation safely, DO NOT do any of these
High-Voltage related experiments.
I would not connect any experimental charger device
to my precious, expensive car without substantial testing,
and logging of its operation with a car-simulator and
suitable test loads.
Toward that end, I an trying to prepare a Val-Serial
Command Language tester for Valery's new isolated
charger, and provide logging of the test data.
I intend to log at least the Output Voltage and Current,
and all the Commands and Responses, along with
Time-Stamps, for examination with my CAN-Do program.
Initially, there will not be any QC car involved, and
I will rely on the charger's own voltage and current
measurements.
The first tests will be with "no load", and just ask the
charger to output a few different voltages. The logs
should show us the response times.
Then, some tests with resistive dummy loads, and
than a test actually charging an "unknown-voltage"
battery of some sort.
