  • I wonder if this will work to charge 18650 batteries? The batteries that I use for my vape can be found here: http://www.amazon.com/Sony-US18650VTC4-2­100mAh-Rechargeable-Batteries/dp/B00J470­LTA

    My goal is to implement battery marrying, Bluetooth/WiFi status for updates.

    Right now I'm using an efest charger to charge my batteries which takes care of draining and charging. The charger also has the capability to charge either at 0.5amps or 1.0amps. I charge at 1.0amps for a faster charge. The batteries are rated at 3.7v but the charger shows 4.2v while charging. So im not sure if the charger is actuall charging using 4.2v. Is charging at 4.2v a trigger to tell the chip in the batteries to turn on charging mode? I don't completely know all the specs used to charge the batteries or the technology/science used in battery charging.
