Hi,
I'm trying to make a solar charger for some of the cells I use in my flashlights.
I read that if you are going to use a trickle charger that the charging voltage for NiMH should be from ~1.4V-1.6V.
What happens if I charge them at ~1.2V? Does the cell just not get completely charged?
In the same respect, if I have a solar panel feeding 1.7V into a cell, would it be damaged? Or is the current flow too low to damage the battery?
Thanks.
