Project - Battery Tester need help!?
battery tester January 21st, 2009Hope there is someone with good electrical knowledge on here i need a wiring diagram for a battery tester/timer.
Spec's:
* For testing 6v - 8ah and 5ah batterys
* It needs to use no more than a 24v supply
* i want it to do a count to 10 lighting up 10 leds (using a 555timer and a decade counter) - as this is happening i need the
0 - 7 voltmeter to check the battery that will be hooked up and when all the leds are lit (after 10 seconds) for it to all reset/finish testing
So basically as i am at a total loss on how to do all this, very limited electrical knowledge! i would greatly appreciate any suggestions!
i hope someone will have the time to draw me a wiring diagram of how i can do this! as i am totally at a loss when it comes to compiling all this or knowing what resistors and types of chip etc. that i need
i have access to all the components i need resistors, leds, etc.
I hope someone will point me in the direction of help!
please contact me via E-mail if you can help!
If you are good at this sort of thing but un-wiling to spend some of your time on this as it may take a while to do, or possibly 5mins if you are really good?
I would consider some type of compensation for your time taken for a good wiring diagram

thank you in advance! please e-mail me! stephenwilson5050@yahoo.com
still searching for help!!
this is a major project. But your specs are way incomplete. The first and most important part of any project is a complete and comprehensive set of specifications. You can't start the design until you have that, and you are far from that point.
"testing a battery" means what?
simplest is just to measure the voltage.
second is to put a load on the battery and see how much the voltage changes, and calculate the state of charge.
what is the counting LEDs for? They seem useless to me.
"reset/finish testing" means what?
"0 - 7 voltmeter" is this a 7 volts FS voltmeter?
