Electronic load molecule build

Requested: commercial electronic load, molecule mounting, control-panel integration, digital twin, wiki source/package/skills/dashboard, purchase cost, 4–5 minute narrated demo with milestone captures.

Research: john/buck-12v5v-molecule is TPS54202, 12 V in, 5 V / 1 A out; not fabricated. Leading candidate Siglent SDL1020X-E ($574 US manufacturer listing), 200 W / 150 V / 30 A, 256 x 115 x 410 mm, 5.8 kg. CAD search ongoing; do not call a reconstructed envelope a verified twin.

Current control-panel source cloned under references/control-panel-dashboard; do not publish this reference tree (it includes upstream configuration). Current source supersedes old overview contact numbering. Native load SCPI adapter should run at CM5/workcell; USBTMC or LAN, separate mains instrument power. No purchase or physical hardware test performed.

Video: milestone capture setup in progress on AdomLapper. First recorder attempt used a stale HWND; second resolved window had changed to unrelated personal content. It was stopped immediately and is EXCLUDED from all deliverables (rec-89769b7e375948a99c4c7d2a556e582a); never pull or publish. Create an isolated public-only capture window and verify exact native title before recording. No usable clip claimed yet.

Next: finish candidate/CAD comparison, capture research, model verified dimensions + explicitly approximate details and mounting carrier, implement/test driver and dashboard, record milestones, publish and verify wiki, prepare narrated per-clip storyboard before final assembly (video-post skill explicitly requires review).
