Charging Smaller Lithium Batteries Gently?
For a long time Nook insisted their ereader be recharged off the USB port of a computer. Mighty inconvenient at times. But I do realize that hammering the little guy with lots of current might be detr...

The Samsung Galaxy 2 phone I have screams OVERCHARGE DISCONNECT! but I suspect the device is monitoring temperarure since this is a summer-only occurance.
The Nook's Glow Light really adds to the battery burden. Takes the useful run time down from say thirty five hours down to ten.
I dang near feel like gluing one of those battery packs thingees onto the NOOK and glue a USB connector wite stub between the two gizmos. Fatter, heavier but maybe (?) Far longer periods between recharges. Is this just wishful thinking or are those recharge battery packs too high of voltage or very limited capacity? I wouldn't mind a bit going 2-weeks between recharges.
The Galaxy2 seems to eat 1% capacity per minute but the discharge percentage speeds up the lower it gets. Glue a danged second battery on that critter? It came to me used so maybe the battery is getting old. I just don't like to be stuck near recharging ports the whole time. Thanks everyone.
