Relay Drama Holding Up Da Pimp's Release

I'm bummed to report that the battery { tester, charger, desulfator } I've been working on for months is suffering from additional delays. Right now, a latching relay has failed QA testing. The component works for a while and eventually fuses the armature on the set side of the contacts. I have three replacement relays (different models) in testing and a possible new location on the board for the relay. Either way it sucks because the release date has been pushed back and the PCBs I've had printed will probably not be used. I'm sorry.

What is your oscilloscope in the pic? I like it!

This is the original DSO Nano made by SeedStudio. They have a v2 which I've not tried. It does the job. My only complaint is it only goes up to 80V.
