Charging batteries with an adjustable DC power supply.

I used mine yesterday when a LiFePO4 battery was showing 0v due to the BMS protection cutoff.

The other thing I find indispensable is a DC battery tester. I can program in the discharge profile, and the device executes it while keeping track of capacity.
