I'm going on holiday soon and came up with an idea, I found an old laptop battery which was 10.8w and 4400mah in total there was 6 batteries inside meaning I divide the total mah by 6? which would make the 733 each? or should it be 4400mah in each one? I'm not 100% certain. Anyway since the battery holder/pack is destoryed I have no way to charge them. I was wondering if I wired them in series and added a wire to the positive in the start of the circuit and the negative at the end and wired it to a DC OUT connector would I be able to charge them like this? if so, How would I find out which charger to use? the original one from the laptop is missing that's why I used these ones. Since I'm taking it on a camping trip I was also wondering if there was a possibility to add a winding function to also charge the battery meaning if I'm that desperate I could power it and install a little voltage monitor?
I don't know much about batteries or electronics but I'd like this to be my first little project as I need a slightly portable phone charger and I'd like to use what I own to make one instead of purchasing a made one. I know there's a lot of features but I'd love to make something all in one that'll last me a life time, I did question solar power too but personally I feel it would charge too slow. although it might be feasible in the later future.
