Lithium-Ion chargers (Somewhat off subject)

[Koenig, Tom]

Richard,

I would not risk it ( unless you wanna burn your office down!) and Li-Pos require a different charging algorithm as far as I am informed.

I use a Schulze charger and since I have been using it......all others I have ever owned previously have been 'disposed of'.

As am trying to regain control of my office; I ran across a lithium-ion charger for cell-phones we have discontinued using.
So we have a number of these laying around(mini boat anchors).  Since I am ignorant on battery stuff--could these be converted for our use on li-pos( 5.9v at 400 <mailto:5.9v at 400>  ma)? Or is the charging circuit protection in the phones?  Just curious.(and cheap)
