Quick Tip: Charge a "Salvaged" Cell Phone Battery on the Bench - Ec-Projects 

This battery reconditioning program exceeded my presumptions. It worked on any drill battery, several AA and AAA batteries,

Making use of the

It's amazing how well this bent wire trick works! Today I found myself trying to manually recharge a phone battery for my gf's mom as she seems to have somehow completely destroyed the charging port (pins are nowhere to be found...). I tried making a little jig with a right angle pinheader and breadboard but I couldn't get good contact. Tried the method shown here, bending wires into small hooks, pushing the battery up to them, then setting something heavy on top (I just used a small portable USB hard drive) and lo and behold it worked perfectly haha! Currently charging happily right now. Thanks for taking the time to post this!

Always obvious after we see. THANKS EcProjects.

If you have any microchip controllers with the little spare sets of pin clip arrays, you can crack a few off and use them to line up with the pins since they're pretty rigid.

I bought a universal charger. 2 contacts on charger and 3 on battery like yours. What is that middle contact on battery for and can I possibly have battery in reversed??

Excellent idea about that taping method. I hated to hold wire on the battery and staying like that for minutes!

How do you charge cell phone batteries with wire connectors already attached to battery like samsung galaxy phones

CC/CV charge pattern, always good to not push too much current in too fast, good video!

Can I use battery of one mobile in second mobile by connecting the mobile charging pins to battery pins through wire as socket of battery is not same. Will it work.

请问可以安装在电动脚车里吗？

Can an old wall adapter work? By cutting the micro usb and exposing the wires

Simple yet it works! What are these types of batteries called? these rectangular flat cells. look like lipo packaging but its lithium ion

how to fix small battery in phone

Very handy tip which could be used for a variety of batteries and for powering items directly from a bench PSU although you have to be careful not to overcharge Li-on batteries as this is a potential fire hazard!

you can use a little neodymium magnets for better and strong contact between Li-ion baterry and crocodiles))

thanks

I recently made a little Polystyrene cradle to charge my daughters phone battery when she forgot her charger and left it at home, it was quite stable to as the polystyrene was none slip, made 2 small loops of wire hooked into the polystyrene foam opposite the terminals and it was portable too ;)

I always wanted to know what type of lithium ion battery is this configuration or 3 pin flat rectangular cells called? seems like its evolved from Nokia batteries

How do you change a flip phone like that
