DIY: Lithium 18650 Cells Charger by Using TP4056 Modules

This time I'll make a charger, which could charge 5 pcs of lithium ion 18650 cells at a time. Parts for this build cost only 5$ at ebay: 18650 battery holders and TP4056 charging modules.In video, I forgot to mention about power supply current. In my case - to power up 5pcs of TP4056, it's need a power supply witch could give minimum 5 amps of current.

hi..inspired by this I wanted to make a charging station for between 1 to 4 18650.. initially was just going to use this idea but wanted to use my 12v power supply.. is there a board similar to the tp4056 with a 12v input.. so I don't need to step down the voltage. I would want the choice of charging 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 batteries..
thanks in advance

If I made one of these but for 12 cell what kind of power supply would I need

These are the newer TP4056's with protection:

Is there an items list, or something where I can learn about the wires and connectors? What kind of wire/connectors to use etc?

nice! What a coincidence that I have made exactly the same gadget for 4x 18650 batteries!
