I've been trying to design a circuit to charge LiFePO4 batteries, I tried with smth small like a 300mA constant current at first and it charges fine. But when charging reaches 3.4V, the voltage of the battery starts increasing rapidly.... I've tried different chargers but get the same response .... How would this be dealt with? Maximum voltage of the LiFePO4 is 3.6V
I heard that LiFePO4 batteries can be charged to 4.2V safely...... but it's sort of risky as it might damage the life of the cell...
any ideas?
