Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of batteries is this TP4056 charger module compatible with?
A: This charger module is specifically designed for single-cell 3.7V lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, including the popular 18650 lithium battery format. It charges to a full charge voltage of 4.2V, which is the standard for most 18650 and similar Li-ion cells.
Q: Does this module include overcharge and over-discharge protection?
A: Yes! This is a dual-function charging board — it combines the TP4056 charging IC with a built-in battery protection circuit. It safeguards your battery against overcharging, over-discharging, and short circuits for safer, longer-lasting battery performance.
Q: Which USB connector types are supported as input?
A: The module is available with your choice of Micro USB, Type-C, or Mini USB input connector. Select the variant that matches your existing charging cables and power sources before ordering.
Q: Can I use multiple modules at once to charge several batteries?
A: Absolutely. That's exactly why this product is offered in packs of 1 to 10 pieces. Each module independently charges one battery, making multi-pack purchases ideal for DIY projects, maker labs, or any setup requiring multiple lithium cells charged simultaneously.
Q: Is reverse polarity connection supported?
A: No — reverse connection is not supported. Always ensure the battery is connected with the correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative) before powering on. Incorrect wiring may damage the module or the battery.
