DUDE SALUTE TO YOU... NO MORE WASTED OLD SMARTPHONE BATTERIES!! THIS IS WHAT I WAS IMAGINING AND LOOKING FOR!!! (unfortunately I'm a dum dum and Doesn't possess the knowledge for this... But thanks to you....now I have a guide
Very Good. But i think the clip may damage the cell. What is the name of this configuration of lithium ion cells wrapped in the form of flat rectangular shape with 3 or more pins? Seems like samsung innovated on nokia type of batteries with similar configuration
I had an old iPhone charging case with the huge connector and I opened it up so I could use it with newer devices the battery got disconnected from the board so hope I can do something like this with it
Um... the diode in the positive battery connection would make it impossible to recharge the battery since it opposes any reverse current flow, which is required in order to recharge the battery. Or am I missing something?
i just slipped the battery out of an old samsung tablet, and it says it was supposed to be putting out a nominal 3.8v, which would be absolutely perfect for my bike headlamp. i really need to figure out how to capitalize on that. especially at the 15.96Wh that the thing was originally designed to do.
Thank you very much. I'm trying to keep it up, but as I began studying electric engineering a few weeks ago I have less time for my projects. However I'll do my best to finish a few videos during winter holidays:).
Thanks for your comment. This selfmade powerbank is indeed a great power supply for Pi's and arduino's cause it features a switch instead of a low-power-consumption-turn-off-function (i'm pretty sure that there is a shorter word :D). I don't know if you ever tried to power an arduino or a small circuit off a usual powerbank but I tried it and it was always shutting off after 30 seconds, very annoying:D.
6 Wires sounds like a 3 cell battery. The BMS board that i am using in this video is made for a single cell so you would need one for each cell and wire the inputs as well as the outputs up in parallel. To find out if you have multiple 3,7V cells you can use a multimeter and measure the voltage between two of the plugs pins to find out which wires connect to which cells. If you get readings that are far below 3,7 V you probably don't have standard lithium cells therefore you would need a different charging pcb.
is it possible to connect batteries of different mah(eg:ihave 4batteries,2 of 1020mah,and two of 860mah)in parrallel to increase the capacity of power bank??
Yes it is, but you will need an individual charging and protection board for each of the batteries. You can then go on and connect all of the board's the outputs to a single step-up-converter and all the inputs to your input connector.
There are two versions of the TP4058 charging board... The older one, which has a mini-USB socket, does not have the discharge protection. The one you want has a micro-USB socket and has both OUTPUT soldering pads and BATTERY soldering pads. At exactly 1:20 in the video you can see a close up view of the board. The 4 soldering pads are near the index finger. That is the board you want.
If the battery is a Lithium-Ion battery with a nominal voltage of 3,7V it will work. But be very careful not to deform or puncture the battery. I ones removed a similar battery from an old phone and accidentally punctured it with my screwdriver. Luckily it did only sizzle for a bit and didn't catch fire.
If it does'nt work on first try, you should hook it up to a USB charger. The board should respond after it received a bit of input power. I hope this solves your issue:).
Great video.. i cant do this bcuz im just a kid i cant buy all that stuff . ik he said 3€ but where am i gonna find all that stuff. i dont have a credit card so i cant order from ebay or amazon
I can understand you, it is always a little bit tricky to get your parts as a kid. I remember when I was younger and had to ask my parents to order all the components for me. They where a little annoyed sometimes. Unfortunately I can't give you any better advise than asking your parents or another adult to order those things for you.
Yes you can indeed use more than one lithium ion cell and combine them in a bigger battery pack. However you can't simply hook them up in parallel. As the individual cells will most likely differ in capacity, you will need a charging board for each individual cell in order to prevent overcharging. I already answered that question in the comment section over on instructables and included a few graphics so you can head over there as well www.instructables.com/id/Reuse-Old-Phone-Batteries-As-a-Powerbank-earth-Day/.
The premise of this project is the recycling aspect. It gives old phone batteries a second life :) . There is even an advantege over a standartised power banks, you can quickly exchange the cells in case you need some extra juice. With a price tag of around two euros it is a fairly inexpensive solution as well. I would also be careful when buying very cheap power banks because there are many cases in which the actual capacity of them is lower than 10% of the value stated on the enclosure. Even aged quality batteries (from sony, samsung, panassonic,.. etc.) have a higher capacity than those brand new cells. I guess this answers your question. Have a nice day :).

But thanks to you....now I have a guide
I'm surprised he didn't use dovetail joints and epoxy in the housing! Damned impressive craftsmanship.
This was very usefull for my fan thanks . :)
This is the topic of my research in our school. I want to know more about it. :)
Very Good. But i think the clip may damage the cell. What is the name of this configuration of lithium ion cells wrapped in the form of flat rectangular shape with 3 or more pins? Seems like samsung innovated on nokia type of batteries with similar configuration
Well done bro. Keep up the great work. By the way, where are you from?
I had an old iPhone charging case with the huge connector and I opened it up so I could use it with newer devices the battery got disconnected from the board so hope I can do something like this with it
Um... the diode in the positive battery connection would make it impossible to recharge the battery since it opposes any reverse current flow, which is required in order to recharge the battery.
Or am I missing something?
Bro I just removed my phone battery protection circuit.....so now can I connect it to the charging module
i just slipped the battery out of an old samsung tablet, and it says it was supposed to be putting out a nominal 3.8v, which would be absolutely perfect for my bike headlamp. i really need to figure out how to capitalize on that. especially at the 15.96Wh that the thing was originally designed to do.
your enclosure is super cool. won.
Can you write the names of those components and suggest us a place or website for buying them..
Hi bro, i have 4 old phone batteries & 2 old laptop batteries , can I make power bank with combination of all of these battery ?
Good job and continue the nice things your making
Thank you very much. I'm trying to keep it up, but as I began studying electric engineering a few weeks ago I have less time for my projects. However I'll do my best to finish a few videos during winter holidays:).
great vid ty :)... will this charge the phone up wile phone is playing audio files ?
:) cool, thanks for your tutorial video.
I will try to make this one to power up my Raspberry Pi :D
Thanks for your comment. This selfmade powerbank is indeed a great power supply for Pi's and arduino's cause it features a switch instead of a low-power-consumption-turn-off-function (i'm pretty sure that there is a shorter word :D). I don't know if you ever tried to power an arduino or a small circuit off a usual powerbank but I tried it and it was always shutting off after 30 seconds, very annoying:D.
hi, i wonder if using the boost converter makes me to use the whole 5 volts? meaning I have other projects that requires less than 5 volts.
whats the name of the pins u used to connect the circuit to the battery.?
I have an internal battery that has 6 wires coming out into a single small, white plug. How would I adapt this tutorial for this battery?
6 Wires sounds like a 3 cell battery. The BMS board that i am using in this video is made for a single cell so you would need one for each cell and wire the inputs as well as the outputs up in parallel.

great video keep up the good work
Thank you very much I'm constantly trying to get better :).
is it possible to take a phone battery and connect it safely to a hand sized quad copter? for longer battery life
it is possible. But not safe
Can you update description with the exact component. The link is broken I guess...and not English. ☹️
Look up TP-4058 lithium-ion charger. If you can build this, you can bloody well use GOOGLE! ;-)
Would your dieode drop effect the charge voltage
from where to buy lithium charger and dc dc set up module in india online at lowest price
is it possible to connect batteries of different mah(eg:ihave 4batteries,2 of 1020mah,and two of 860mah)in parrallel to increase the capacity of power bank??

Can I use a tablet battery?
I cant seem to find the circuit which offers discharge protection, i only see charging module even in the givenn link
There are two versions of the TP4058 charging board... The older one, which has a mini-USB socket, does not have the discharge protection. The one you want has a micro-USB socket and has both OUTPUT soldering pads and BATTERY soldering pads. At exactly 1:20 in the video you can see a close up view of the board. The 4 soldering pads are near the index finger. That is the board you want.
what kind of diode is it?
Does a soft pack iPhone battery work?
If the battery is a Lithium-Ion battery with a nominal voltage of 3,7V it will work. But be very careful not to deform or puncture the battery. I ones removed a similar battery from an old phone and accidentally punctured it with my screwdriver. Luckily it did only sizzle for a bit and didn't catch fire.
what should i plug if the device doesn't work?
If it does'nt work on first try, you should hook it up to a USB charger. The board should respond after it received a bit of input power. I hope this solves your issue:).
what do you use to charge the batery?
To charge the batteries you can simply use a regular 5V USB cable like the one for your phone and a micro USB cable.
how do you know if the phone battery is fully charged
pp
The charging board has LED indicators for 'charging' and 'full'.
I have a old tablet battery can I make a power bank from them
If it is a 3.7V lithium ion cell and it hasn't gone bad for some reason you can use it:).
Great video.. i cant do this bcuz im just a kid i cant buy all that stuff . ik he said 3€ but where am i gonna find all that stuff. i dont have a credit card so i cant order from ebay or amazon

You can ask friends for their broken cell phones. Cell phones have a cpb inside that you can take out and use.

I wonder if ican do it
how can I get the boards
I recently added a few product links to the Video discription.
Can I use my old Nokia phone battery? The phone was not working coz it become wet. Can I use it? Pls te
JigyasuBansal I'm late but yes you can
how much mA can the boost converter handle from the battery
Francisco Sanchez I don't think there is a limit.
I like it
i have 3 mobile battery which is 21000 mah how i used these all three batery & can make rechargeable mobile power bank
same as here, put 3 batery and connect + + + and - - - but isnt best, combine batteries with not same capacity
Yes you can indeed use more than one lithium ion cell and combine them in a bigger battery pack. However you can't simply hook them up in parallel.

I can get a 4000 mah power bank at 3 euros at market.what's the nacessity to waste time
The premise of this project is the recycling aspect. It gives old phone batteries a second life :) . There is even an advantege over a standartised power banks, you can quickly exchange the cells in case you need some extra juice.

I guess this answers your question.
Have a nice day :).
U R right.But I where I will get these circuits.Here we don't have ebay,amazone etc
3 euros? In which country?
4000 mah powerbank for 3 euros? Highly unlikely that it'll be a genuine capacity.
if the phone was able to power on with the batter then sell it online
It powered on but using it to make calls was impossible as the speaker is broken. However I am still using it to record my audio from time to time.
