Now you know why I try to rely on engineering principles. With Lithium cells, I have noticed voltages rated in multiples of 3.7 volts and multiples of 3.6. Since the electrolic physics cannot change, I suspect the 3.6volt devices do have protect circuitry that is causing the voltage drop. [/quote]There are different Li-ion technologies. Each can have different charge methodologies. I have even heard that some of the newer cells can be charged to 90% in 5 minutes. So, different cells could also have different rated working output voltages. -Dan ---------- End of Message ---------- You can view the post on-line at: http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=7&p=1&m=114499#m138053 Need assistance?
