List lurker here. Your challenge reminds me some code programming I did
for my gantry router (idle/dead for 3 years now).
I recall programming with subroutines that jepler pointed me to.
I set a routine that could drill all my anchor holes, then once secured I
used same sub to cut larger diameter holes.
The sub was passed center point, initial diameter, final diameter, final
depth, tool diameter, and overlap. I think I played with some additional
parameters as well.
The hole diameters used the G2/3 commands and I let subroutine calculate
cut depth based on tool diameter.
Perhaps the subroutine option would assist you. Perhaps doing a diameter
with a while statement watching feedback from edm. Then stepping to the
next calculated diameter?
Just a thought.
Nice idea, but my EDM supply is a simple RC circuit, on a totally
separate supply, and I've not sussed how to interface it to lcnc, yet. . .
Ideas on that welcome as I would like to make the feed rate more automatic.
Thanks Brian.
Worked in at a battery charger factory for some years. Among some other
things wrote software for the charging
algorithm.

So you know far more about lead acid batteries than the average bear.
Each one has an optimum charging rate and voltagge.
That is rare.
