At work we're using a GPS mapping unit with the following:
Battery
3.7v
3960mAh
Charger
12V
0.5A
A single battery would be charged by leaving it in the device and connecting the charger.
To charge two batteries we have an add-on for the charger with two battery slots – I take it the juice from the mains is shared between the two batteries so the total charger time for both is 2 x whatever the charge time for one is.
Can anyone help explain the maths to work out the charging time?
The equipment manual meentions nothing apart from suggest a first 6 hour charge.
Also, do li-ion chargers stop charging when the battery is full? I'm worried about overchargeing the batteries if left on charge too long.
