Question: Fast charging 1s (mobile battery)?

helpfulguy said:

Hey guys,
My phone have a ~3000mah 1s battery (LG G3). Not sure about exact chemistry.
Li ion batteries can safely be charged quite fast up to a certain percentage, ~80% or so. Some phones have this incorporated in the charging circuit, most prominently the qualcomm "quick charge 2.0" feature. Since the phone also is the charger - the charging time is dependant on the phone itself having this chip. My phone does not. I dont want to buy a new one, but want this feature. So why the hell don't we make our own cool DYI battery chargers/docking stations, that charge our _removed_ batteries to 80% in ~15 min instead of 2 hours?

There must exist some 1s smart charger that is capable of this, to create a small docking station around?
Would be great, and raise awareness/introduction to people to feel confident with battery- and charging technology for an EV-future! =D

Hey guys,
Luke did this (lifeforphysics), I believe he adapted nanotech cell in his phone. But someone said this guy has melon size brass balls. :lol:

You would need about 10 amp charge rate to do that, so any of the cheaper 10A , RC chargers should be able to give you that on a single cell setting, with a timer inbuilt also
How much does a new phone battery cost in case it all goes wrong ? :lol:

Can such a battery can take that rate of charging? ...
