Hello Everyone,

This is my Second Instructables,

So your feedback will be really helpful for me to improve further.

Also check out my YouTube channel for more projects.

Today i am going to show you how to make a Universal Battery Charger with Magnetic terminals.

With this charger you can able to charge any Lithium ion and Lead acid battery voltage rangers between 1.5V to 30V, The reason why i used the magnetic terminals is using this you can easily connect/stick to any type of battery with out any need of special connectors for each type of battery.

So Lets kick start...!!
