Hello, everybody! Sorry if I have posted this in the wrong forum, but this one seemed appropriate. I want to hear your ideas about a setup I will build. I want to register the current a charger is providing to a battery during the charging period.
The charger uses CCCV charging (constant current up to 4,2V, then constant voltage until the current is ~5% of the original current).
I will use a potentiostat connected as a ZRA (zero resistance ammeter) to monitor the current. You can read the instructions on how to connect it if you want here, "Special Case Setup: ZRA Mode" at the bottom of the page.
You can see my setup here
WE = Working electrode
WS = Working sense
CE = Counter electrode
CS = Counter Sense
Ref = Reference electrode
I will then program the potentiostat to keep a 0 net voltage drop between WE and CE.
What are your thoughts here: will this setup work in monitoring the current during charge?
