Re: LED Battery meter

the "fuel" guage of almost every kit is a scaled voltmeter designed for lead acid batteries.

they are worthless for more advanced chemistries like LiFePO4

the cost of remaking the moulds for the same kit without those redundant LEDs is more than it is worth.
so they are retained, and no longer do anything.
