Need hotshot to develop a product. Device to stop 18650 cells charge at 80 percent.

Some kind of device that maybe you could slide in on top of cell in multiport charger that would limit voltage to 4.0! OR a charger that can be set to that. There is no charger that does this. There are a few that can stop at 3.7 volt for storage. It would triple life of battery. Sell like hotcakes. Also a device that stops dischargability of cell when it approaches safe low limit. Such as in flashlights. Anyone that has a connect or is capable of that kind of design? It would revolutionize the category. I know that the LUNA charger is capable of that on battery packs, but to gang charge cells to 80 would be great.

There’re already lotta adjustable chargers that had been in use for years.

I have been searching, using AI, checking all the specs and descriptions, no luck.

Thanks.

If it helps, there were several options that came up on google by typing ‘adjustable voltage 18650 21700 charger’

U can add diodes and they have a voltage drop. I’ve done that off the end of the charger

those would sell like crazy on ebay

I have more coming.
