I have a camera that runs on 2, 1.5V alkaline batteries but i have to constantly replace those batteries and it annoys me.
So, i have a mobile battery(Li-ion) that looks like this:
I can regulate the output(about 4.6V i think) to the 3V needed by the camera easily, but its the charging that is the problem.
To regulate the charging of this battery(not to over-charge it etc) looks too complex, but then again I didn't look at it properly, and am rather afraid to do so.
So, should I:
1. Build a charger myself (I'm not too inexperienced when it comes to building things, but I still need help)
2. Buy a lithium ion battery charger from eBay (not really what I want)...
3. Stop using a camera and start painting.
Basically what I am asking is if it is difficult/expensive to build a Li-ion battery charger...
Thank you.
