i am interested to get one after testing is finished. I want to use it as a switch with an reed contact to power on my board after the battery is connected and the hatch is closed.
Yes, we are going to do the same.
We’ll put the DIY antipark in the battery case and activate it when the lid is closed.
Not sure what current will go through the “reed” switch when activating.
If it’s too much, the reed will stick (the metal can fuse together due to the contact arc).
The current through the switch is 5mA and limited to a soft startup current as well. But it is the full battery voltage, however that should be ok for most reed switches I think…
