    One thing that really impresses me is that you figured out how the eyelids would work, since Valve themselves said (In the developers commentary level of Portal 2) that while they made sure that Wheatley's design was realistic in a "you could actually see this being built" sense, they had to cheat a bit with the eyelids. And yet you managed to make it work. Good job!

    Hey great project and thanks for the build video! One thing though, please be very careful with those 18650s! They should always be "married" into a single cell, charged alike, and discharged simultaneously. You should never mix new and old 18650s, as they will have uneven levels of wear, which can lead to one battery taking the brunt of the work and failing. Always good to get a BMS if you can, and always use new cells :). They're cheap enough that it's not worth the risk of fire/explosion. Battery safety is no joke with the higher current cells.
