Feature proposition: sampling battery voltage #2

Open Gregwar opened 10 years ago

Hi, Here is a feature proposition for next boards, adding a voltage divider to be able to sample the battery voltage on-board This could matter because, for instance, over-discharging LiPo battery is dangerous

good idea! yes right...it need to check voltage ckeck we also have Li-Ion battery product, did you see it? 3.7V OpenCM use these two battery as serise connection, but not released yet.

We plan to test the OpenCM9.04 with your batteries soon, but having a way to monitor it from the software would be cool
