I received the following email out of the blue. I'm not interested, for multiple reasons, but I thought somebody out there might be. I have written some linux shell scripts for use with Arduino, but never code for the Arduino itself. Arduino could do items #2 and #7, and possibly #3, #4, and #6, but I have no idea about the other items. Anyone interested in this?

I have a couple of designs and I think the Arduino should work. I don't write software and I would like to know if you would. I am looking to make a battery charger that that will do the following;
- Charge to from a 120VAC input source. I will also need code to change the output voltages to 48VDC, 72VDC, 96VDC, 120VDC or 144VDC all with the same 120VAC source Amperage will change with each voltage pack
- Monitor Temperature in 4 locations
- Have a low voltage cut off for each of the voltage groups
- Have a high voltage cut off for each of the voltage groups
- Have a trickle charge mode for each group
- Have LED outputs on all above operations
- Programmable from a PC I will get the hardware for the project. I just need you to write the software and make any recommendations I have two other projects on the board. I would like to start with this one. Please let me know if you can do this. I would like to know a time table and costs.
