Finally, I get the SBMS powered up with a bank of 8 super capacitors in series. This is a "playing with" video, so I'm learning as I go 🙂

🖕🏼please stop flipping us off while pointing at things 🖕🏼 I'm just getting sick of seeing you giving me the finger for several minutes at a time🖕🏼every 🖕🏼f*n🖕🏼video🖕🏼.
Let's see, you a cable with 8 wires not connected to the controller with 8 connections. Maybe there is the problem. No maybe about it.
A slightly off-topic question: what charger are you currently using to charge your NiMH batteries (all the Eneloops you have)? I have an Ansmann "energy 4" (which wasn't the cheapest at it's time) and I have the feeling it cooks my batteries so they deteriorate quite quickly.
Use to use a capacitor forming/charging tool while powering up power distribution frames in the telephone company. Your lightbulb brought back memories.
Julian PLEASE get a CC bench power supply. ( I know you won't)!
So, a solar charge controller can't charge a low battery? Couldn't you connect your 12 or 18 VDC to the PV terminals?

Wow. Looking at the ElectroDacus site, you've got quite an investment there. I live in Florida. I wonder if I should load my roof with solar collectors. Thanks for the video.
What a lovely package to relieve through the mail – I've had one of those recently :-). I've been conducting my own experiments with lithium charged by solar – looking forward to your results. Thanks for another very interesting video Julian and a nice cliff hanger!
Is there any benefit to one cell arangment over the other?
Is the bulb basically acting like a fuse?
