On this site, I’m publishing the data I have collected during my experiments and tests with mostly LiFePO4 cells. I use the ZKE-Tech EBC-A20 and ZKE-Tech EBC-A40L tester for that. Links to both devices can be found here.
If you don’t have any of these testers but you still would like to analise the data, you can simply download the ZKE software and install it on your Windows PC. All csv files below can then easily be imported into the software for further study and exploration.
The download for the software is here (without actual tester, you only need to download the eb_setup_v1.8.5en_1001.exe file and the manual if needed).
