Parkside Multi Charger: Controller Architecture for the Basic and Pro Versions Development of the Parkside Multi Charger has entered a new stage. During the latest planning phase, several controller and power-switching architectures were compared to find a solution that keeps the Basic version easy to build while leaving enough room for the more advanced Pro model.
Read more Parkside Multi Charger – New Development Milestone Development of the Parkside Multi Charger continues to make steady progress. Recent work has focused not only on hardware and software development but also on establishing the project's public identity and communication. The project currently consists of two separate development branches: Parkside Multi Charger (Normal) and Parkside Multi Charger Pro.
