I want to build a charging station for 18650 cells.
I currently have four Nitecore (Sysmax) Intellicharger i4 chargers.
I want to build a box out of non-flammable material, such as metal or phenolic sheets (not wood). At first, I was thinking building the box myself and mounting a 120mm PC case fan at each end, one blowing in and the other blowing out. I'm not sure how I would build a metal box, so I thought of using an old PC case to hold the chargers. I was also wondering if I could power the i4 chargers with the PC power supply using the 12v wires that normally power PC drives.
This is all in the planning stages right now, but I was wondering if anyone else has done anything like this.
