Well I may not be an "electronics expert", but I have written the firmware, including battery management for several products which are "out there" in numbers that exceed 100,000, and I would not want to do what you are contemplating. Lithium cells are not only way less tolerant of charging voltage variations, but are also much more dangerous when they fail.skinee":25lothe2 said:many thanks for all your replies,my main reason for wanting to try this is the outrageous price of power tool batteries in general and li-ion in particular also the overwhelming benefits of the li-ion,my AEG charger will charge all three types of battery therefore it seems to me that if i can remove the nicads and replace them with the exact same cells that are in a li-ion battery(i have li-ion batteries for comparison)then the only other possible problem could be an absence of the over discharge circut,i will consult a person i know who is an eletronics expert for his advice(he may be able to build the circut for me)if the batteries can be converted i will post the information here.
