## Description

This charger is the only one you need to keep all your Lithium Polymer (LiPoly) or Lithium Ion (LiIon) rechargeable batteries topped up. No matter the power source at your disposal! The Adafruit Universal USB / DC / Solar Lithium Ion/Polymer Charger can use USB, DC or Solar power, with a wide 5-10V input voltage range! The charger chip is super smart, and will reduce the current draw if the input voltage starts to dip under 4.5V, making it a perfect near-MPPT solar charger that you can use with a wide range of panels. Even though it was designed with solar in mind, it's also great as a plain USB or DC charger - we like that you can use 5V or 9V chargers without worry, and the high charge rate is great for quickly charging up those large battery packs! 3.7V/4.2V Lithium Ion or Lithium Polymer battery charger Charge with 5-10V DC, USB or 6-10V solar panel - can have both USB and DC plugged in at the same time, higher voltage source will be used. Automatic charging current tracking for high efficiency use of any wattage solar panel Use any 6-10V solar panel Two color indicator LEDs - Power good and Charging Set for 1000mA max charge rate - can be adjusted to 500mA or 1.5A by soldering closed a jumper Will always draw the most current possible from a solar cell - up to the max charge rate! Smart load sharing - automatically uses the input power when available, to keep battery from constantly charging/discharging, up to 1.5A draw. Load output is regulated to no-more-than 4.4V Optional Temperature monitoring of battery (requires soldering in a 10K NTC thermistor not included) - suggested for outdoor projects where the battery may get hot (50°C) or cold (0°C).

Reçu rapidement et intact encore heureux car l'emballage laisse franchement à désirer! Pour ceux qui se pose la question non le panneau, la batterie, câbles, connecteurs ne sont pas fournis. D'après les premiers tests tout semble correct. Vous pouvez trouver la fiche détaillée sur le site adafruit.
