Agreed, highly frustrating this. I found a way to make it work but it would have been a lot better if third party batteries could be supported by the system out-of-the-box without butchering a Bosch pack first.
You probably should add "Show HN:" in front of the title, since it's you who posted and did all this. Thank you for a great article!
Will do. But since it seems to have sunk without a trace I'm wondering if that's even worth it.
And you're welcome, that was a fun build.
