hii have a lot of mobile phone charges that say "output 5v .7A" i want to use it to charge a liion battery..both prismatic and cylindrical 18650.i have few question..
What does the figures in output mean ? does it means its a CC/CV output ?
Can i use a Voltage Divider Circuit to Drop the extra voltages and get 4.2volts and then connect those 4.2 volts to the output of protected 18650 cell or unprotected liion cell ( saftey against over charge is gauranteed by firstly the fact that when the battery voltage equals the charger output voltage no more current flows and secondly i will be constantly observing it..) while reading about Voltage divider network in the book "Electic Circuits" by Nilsson it mentioned that the as long as the Load Resistance is very very greater then R2 ( wheare as r1 and r2 are the two series resistors and r2 is the resistor accros which i will be geting output ) ..the output voltage remains fairly constant.. ? so in my case the load is cell what should be its resistance ?
Thanks
