Why this project exists

The Dyson V10 battery system comprises of a battery management controller IC and a microcontroller to monitor/configure it.

However, it has a number of intentional shortcomings, some of which this firmware will aim to address.

• The Dyson firmware does not do cell balancing even though the IC supports it (the way the board is laid out means it is unlikely we will be able to implement it either, but it's a pity because they COULD have done it)
• Once the batteries go out of balance, or if one cell fails, the battery management system permanently disables the battery, meaning even if you replace the cells with new ones, or rebalance the pack, it'll never work again (this is the real target of this project)
