15:12 <arossdotme> i have a rc battery charger. i have a old never used laptop battery li-ion 11.1V 6000mha. there is not li-ion 11.1v charge mode only for li-po. do i use li-po mode on a li-ion pack? or is the vottage on the pack missleading and i should use the li-on 10.4v or 14.somethingV mode to charge it?

15:14 <arossdotme> also i see this laptop pack has a ti monitor chip but the sets of 3 cells that are in parrell. and each set is conencted in seriels is not monitored buy the ti monitor chip but by a seporate board. there is only 2 power wires going to the ouput/ ti monitor chip. so do i need to connect the cell sets to the balance input of the rc charger? as it looks like it has its only protection circuit.

15:15 <arossdotme> only=own

15:16 <arossdotme> so i belive i just connect the main 11.1v pwr wires to the charger and not the cell sets to the balance input/monitoring of the rc charger

15:17 <arossdotme> buy=by

15:17 <whitequark> there is no difference in chemistry between li-ion and li-po

15:17 <arossdotme> oh

15:18 <arossdotme> and li-on is the same as li-ion?

15:18 <whitequark> there is no "li-on" batteries

15:18 <arossdotme> so that is just my china chargers miss spelling :)

15:18 <arossdotme> thought i didnt remmber being a li-on

15:19 <arossdotme> thanks

15:19 <arossdotme> but didnt li-ion and li-po have different end charge voltage

15:19 <arossdotme> li-ion 4.1 vs 4.2li-po

15:29 <arossdotme> btw thanks muchly whitequark

15:31 <arossdotme> been a great help, i guess is there no diff in chemistry then there should not be a diff in volts. its just i thought iremmber there being ones withh a 0.1v lower max volt.....?

15:31 <arossdotme> is=as

15:31 <wpwrak> hmm ... chinese + li-on ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lion-Eating_Poet_in_the_Stone_Den

16:46 <larsc> that does not sound healthy
