Comment on Sanity check for LiFePO4 Charger Design
Saigonauticon@voltage.vn 11 months agoBattery University is indeed a great resource!
However this is not a lithium polymer battery, and as it’s a 32700, it is not a prismatic or pouch cell either. It is a lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) cylindrical battery in metal housing. Battery University does have them listed in their table of chemistries (in case you’re curious), but they don’t seem to have much detailed information. Enough to build a charger though :)

Anyway, thanks for your reference in any case! I’m not responding to criticize you, only to improve the utility of this conversation in case someone else finds it on search :)

Oh my bad. I’m no battery expert by a long shot; just meant to contribute a good source of information. But you’re way ahead of me anyway. Carry on! 😊
