When I first got my AT pro I posted 2 or 3 questions about my machine not working right. Found out it was all user error. I felt dumb, but hey, you gotta learn. :tongue3:

Good facts in this post, it reminds me of experience making custom cell packs, the number one rule is that all fits between battery and holder must not be too tight or the cell will slide off the contact and stick there and kaput no power.
