Hi, I am having issues with setting up the LTC2943. The bruise on my head where I keep hitting it on the table is getting bigger every day. I have searched the entire net, but am yet to find a suitable working example to get the LTC2943 up and running on the Electron. There are libraries in particl…

Thanks @ScruffR after many hours, I have it working. It’s messy… but works :slight_smile:

Have you seen this post (over a year ago)? [image] LTC2943 Multicell Fuel Gauge Libraries I have modded/ported the "Linduino"LTC2943 library provided by LT and published it to Particle. I’m getting convincing looking numbers out of the features I am using… If someone want…

@ScruffR Thanks, Yes I did. Searched high and low. Still had no luck getting it to work. My coding abilities are pretty limited but generally, I can modify working code to suit my needs, but I don’t have the ability to write code from scratch unless it is really basic.

Maybe @Viscacha is still around to chime in to address any issues (which can’t be posted to his repo as the Web IDE doesn’t seem to expose it). Can you provide some extra info about the way how his library is not working? It’s always difficult to debug without knowing what to look for :wink: (espe…

Good to hear, sorry I was away on holiday and the project I use this library is has been on some kind of holiday too. IIRC the functions don’t do much more than expose the queries you send the chip and translate those numbers into something meaningful. That leaves several jobs to handle when you us…

@Viscacha Thanks for your info. I am not the one to tell you what the fix is… I barely just got the reading function working.
