Hardware - Prototype Development

Yesterday, I was updating my blog. So, today I started to develop a charger port to connect the battery with the charger as the charger and battery have different type of connectors. I also assemble cables and connectors for sensors and data cables. The charger port works and finally I manage to charge the battery. Below are the pictures during the construction.

I'm using an adjustable adapter with selected voltage of 7.5V. The output is slightly higher from the rated value.

Sensor cables consist of Vcc, gnd and Vo
