Charging LI bike light batteries with my camper's 12V system

I like to use my camper's 12V system to recharge various batteries because the camper is solar powered and it just gives me warm fuzzies to use that solar power for something else when I'm not camping...

I agree with Canadian Rainbirds.


rechargeable lithium batteries differ. I have 2 sets of 4 lithium 9-volt batteries.

If I use one type (brand) of battery in the other brand's charger they get hotter than the hinges of hades. Conversely, the other way round, it takes longer than 16 hours to charge the other batteries.

Good thing both are marked battery and charger.

Freakin' nuthouse arrangement. Yes the batteries came with the chargers.
