Home-brew battery measuring station

How about doing "pre-made packs" since that's the way most are sold now. Not many users buy cells and make their own anymore. That way the lead and the cell construction would be in the picture so to speak. If I was to test packs , I think I'd like to limit to 2S or at most 3S and use bare leads only. That way the connector of choice would not influence the testing and it would be easier/cheaper to test them. It would still be a good enough sample to interpolate data for 3-8S packs without requiring very high power capacity.
