I am certainly new to this but I'm a quick learner. I'm having trouble deciphering all of the schematics and conflicting information on rechargeable batteries. Currently I know that several people use Lithium-ion battery mods. I've tried this myself with limited success. Information I've read tells me that Li-Ion batteries are dangerous and if over discharged can be dangerous or fatal to the battery itself. Right now I have a bunch of these chips "TP4056 5V Micro USB Lithium Battery Charging Board". I'd rather not waste them but I am going to be selling these mods so I want to make sure I'm not selling something that will soon break. Is it safer to use perhaps simply rechargeable AA batteries, and would this even work with this particular charging module?
Any and all information on this topic will be much appreciated, I'm kind of learning by trial and error without help.
(below is a link to the project which I copied with my gameboy color with, as I said, limited results. Soldering wired directly to a battery turned out to be very difficult for me and I'm sure that's not the correct method of attachment for rechargeables ... right? I'm so confused)
