That's a really good idea. My little board is symmetric, with 2 mounting holes for the bus bar, so you can flip it either way, and the current sensor will still be in the same spot above the bus bar. That's the only 5v specific part I think. What a good idea!

I wrote the Gcode for the 2 pcb isolation strips for the 1000amp controller and cut out all 6 of them, 2 per controller. Those little buggers are 11.245"x0.75"x0.08", in case anyone was wondering. I think the metals will be here Monday.
