hey you guys. I'm working on a light for my mountain bike, and I'm working out the details of the power system.
originally i was going to use my 3s 2170 trex packs, which would give me 2.5hr runtime, but i dont wanna kill my lipos by skewering them on a rock or something.
so during the course of my rummaging, i came across a dell laptop battery that was full of 12 delicious 2150mAh li-ion cells, And I'd like to make a few 3s2p packs, but i dont have a li-ion charger.
my question, is can I charge the li-ion cells with my cellpros, assuming I solder on the proper balance tap etc? They are the same nominal voltage, but i dont know if the full charge voltage is the same or if I'm going to blow something up, so i figure I'll ask first.
thanks in advance
