    Li Ion Charger

    I am about to build a charger for 4 cells ,going to cement a thermistor to the case of one of the batteries to control the charger.
    What is a safe temperature when charging the batteries ?

    thanks

    DIY: Modified smart charger for all types of batteries
    by dbuergi
    Hi all,

    sometimes i'm in need of a charger / tester for very small batteries and even if my multimeter doesn't show anything there is a chance that a smart charger helps to revieve. I'm happy with my Keenstone smartcharger and i made a small mod just to use it with smaller batteries like in smartwatches or even camera batteries with special contacts.

    Soldering wires on the charger contacts and using needles as probes. I covered both with a shrink hose with integrated solder.
    My first work was to bring my Samsung watch battery back to life with was not recognized...

    Cyberpower cps1500avr not charging batteries
    by carrzkiss
    Hello, all.

    Cyberpower Battery Backup Unit.

    I bought two new ML18-12 batteries through Amazon (They have already refunded my money for the two batteries as we thought the batteries might have been bad.)
    When I got them in, they were not fully charged. I connected them to the UPS and waited 24 hours before connecting any networking equipment.
    In parallel, they read 24v, but within 24 hours, the meter on the front of the unit dropped from 4 to 3 bars on the battery charge indicator.
    Checking the voltage, it was down to 22v.
    I quickly removed everything...

    how to prevent a connected charger from draining battery when not charging?
    by flat-earther
    I have an RC radio handset(Taranis QX7) which doesn't have internal battery charger which means I had to remove the battery every time I needed to charge it.
    So to improve it, I added a 15W USB-C charger board(link) inside and soldered it to the same connector on the PCB where the battery plugs into, great, now I can simply charge it with a USB-C cable.

    but the problem I found is that after the radio sat for two weeks without being used the 2S 18650 battery that I'm using was at 4.2V!
    So the battery is backfeeding the charger and being drained.

    How can I prevent...

    Dell Inspiron 7567 LA-D993P odd charger issue
    by Johndill
    Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron 7567 LA-D993P that I've just got running.
    There was corrosion around PU1503 which shorted PC1518 & blew PL1504. (Reference pictures attached)
    I've replaced PC1518 & PL1504 & the laptop is now running however I now have another issue.

    Here are the tested scenarios:

    1. With the laptop running on battery, I plug in the 150W charger & the charger shuts off (no LED, protection mode) but the laptop remains running on battery.

    2. With the laptop off, plug in charger (LED says on) & the front charging...
