This is my latest project! I have loads of cells and I want to charge them all quickly. This show you how I made something which can carry and parallel 15 cells into one unit! Each cell is seperate and can be taken out to be used elsewhere - these calls are not soldered up. It costs £1 - £2 to make. You will need some device which allows an output of 4v or so and maybe 5a. For now, I'm using a Variable Power Supply.

ATTENTION: For this design, you must stay with the charger at the start and take out any hot/broken cells. Shorting cells will attempt to draw the full 5a, which is not good!
