Lithium Battery question...HELP!!!!?

Question

i have a 7v Lithium Ion rechargeable battery (i think thats what the "7v" means), but i lost the charger. Will a charger that says it has an imput of 120v and an output of 12v work?

Answer 1

use the original battery and charger

Answer 2

You must use the correct lithium ion battery recharger to recharge lithium batteries.

Can you say explosion?

Answer 3

Hmmm. You're making me have to think here. So I'm assuming that your charger cradle has a black brick that goes into the wall socket, and you lost that, and that connects to the charger cradle. Well, you need a brick that outputs 5-7V with a sufficient current rating. Is there any information on the current requirements for the battery? See I live in Pittsburgh, so I would go to Batteries Plus here, but you need a brick. So you would have to buy one online. Digikey would have one. There are unanswered questions here, so email me if you can't make progress. Batteries Plus should be able to tell you how much current the brick needs to supply, but they are not likely to have one. So you need to buy a brick with an adequate current output.

Don't use the 12V output brick. The battery could blow up and hurt you.
