# LipoCharger
This is a simple but effective, dual-rate, standalone charger for Lithium
-Polymer batteries. It supports who different charge rates, approximately
-100mA and 500mA. The higher rate is good for batteries of 400 mAh and higher
-including the 900mAh cells sold with [TeleMetrum](../TeleMetrum) starter kits,
-while the lower rate is more appropriate for the 110mAh cells often used with
-[TeleMini](../TeleMini). A standalone charger is essential for use with
-TeleMini since it does not have on-board charging capability.
