Lithium Polymer (Lipo) Battery Charger Circuit
In this post I have explained a simple lithium polymer (Lipo )battery with over charge cut off feature. The idea was requested by Mr. Arun Prashan. Charging a Single Lipo Cell with CC and CV I came across your work on “Bicycle Dynamo Battery Charger Circuit” in Homemade circuit design blog. It was really informative. I […]
Making a Regulated 9V Battery Eliminator Circuit
The post presents a regulated 9V battery eliminator circuit which was built and investigated by Mr. Steven Chiverton, an avid reader of this blog and an experienced electronic hobbyist. I have explained more from him. 9 volt battery eliminator circuit tests: Circuits built 2x each circuit ive made a small modification to it buy adding […]
Battery Charger for Positive Earth Cars
The post presents an 6v or 12v battery charger circuit for positive earth cars which could be used for upgrading 6V positive earth cars, facilitating an external 12V battery to be used in them along with the existing 6V battery with a common positive earth body. The idea was requested by Mr. Joe Ceretti. 6V […]
Parallel Battery Charger Circuits Explained
In this post I have explained two methods of connecting batteries in parallel. The first one below deals with changeover circuit using SPDT switches to charge multiple batteries individually or collectively. These may be connected in parallel using a single battery charger and through a manual SPDT changeover switch bank. The seconds design talks about […]
Flashing LED Battery Low Indicator Circuit
In this post I have explained a simple low/normal battery voltage status indicator circuit through a flashing and a constant LED, where the flashing LED indicates a normal status while the solid indicator warns against a low battery condition. The idea was requested by Mr.Alf. Technical Specifications Hi, I found and built your “Low Battery […]
