Mario,

Just wondering how firmware development for the Kid is progressing.
Is 1741 still the latest available? Any interim later releases with bug fixes or new features?

I have been running this on beta #28 and the resting with full power input has been sorted out. At least on 12v agm with two 190w 36v pv in series as input. Also no blue-blank display issues.  :)

Still looking for:

- serial port activity with Volts, Amps etc data output so that development can start  on some reporting programs.
- setting for output amps up to 40A,  perhaps with max downgrading as fet/pcb temps reach certain points
- AUX inputs and outputs for external device control
- ..and of course the Kid Clipper  :)
