Default DIY 30/40/60/70/100A 2S LiPo Discharger

Heres a video showing a 2S high current lipo discharger I made that can do multiple current draws up to 100A. Hope you guys like it

Just hook up a LiPo alarm to keep you awake when the battery has reached the voltage.

I made my own with an automatic shut off detection

Yeah, I mentioned that I was going to use one of those next time in the video. I love youre automatic shutoff detection but Im afraid Im not advanced enough in electronics to understand how to recreate what you built. I understand part of it, Ill have to study it. Thanks for the link

I'm curious of the value to the process to pull than 40 amps out of a battery for discharge. I do cycle batteries on race days and just do 40 amps. From your perspective, what were you looking to accomplish other than being able to do it. I'm not an expert, but I am curious.

I have a bunch of 2S lipos that I want to run through a series of tests for comparison purposes. One of the tests will be high current discharges to see which ones hold up under high stress better.
