Hey guys and gals,
I figured I'd start here since the signal to noise ratio is quite good here I have a laptop battery pack that I want to use for another project. It's currently had its case removed and is being used outside of the laptop. But to charge it I have to return it to the laptop at least overnight. I'd like to be able to charge it externally, using a 3rd party charging circuit. It's 11.1v, and has 12 cells, so I guess that's 3s4p. If so, is this the thing I'm looking for?

It seems all too easy if that is. I'm concerned that I'm missing some factor that I haven't taken into account. I don't know what I don't know, you know? Thanks a lot
