As you all know, lithium batteries use a CC --> C/V method for charging lipos. Lead acid chargers however use CC --> C/V --> Float charging, making them not suitable for lithium charging (BOOOOM!)
Anyone know how to modify the chargers from lead acid to lithium, aka turn off float charging? These are the chargers I am working with. I want to turn the first one into the second one:

Disregard voltage differences.
I've done things like modify current, and end voltage. But this lead acid charger has 2 voltage pots right by the output, whereas the lithium chargers have one there. I wonder if I remove one of them, if that will get rid of the float charger, but wondering if anyone else has tinkered with them.
