Battery Charge Indicator

thingiverse

This is a battery charge indicator that you can make and then stick on a battery. It works very simply: you slide the little indicator over to either the charged side or discharged side depending on the status of the battery. If you don't want to make the part out of three different colours then thats no problem because I have put a tick and a cross on either side so you will still know whether the battery is charged. I printed out of PLA using a layer height of 0.1mm and an infill of 100% but infill doesn't really matter. This indicator does require assembly as it is made in three parts but this is easy. Simply put the slider indicator in one half and then stick the other half directly next to it on the battery so that the slider can slide between the two halves. To stick the indicator down onto the battery (and thus together) you can use double sided tape or regular all purpose glue.
