Hey everyone, I'm a new guy here =]
Well I have a few questions. I am working on making a hand crank charger for my cell phone. I have the hand crank device, and it has an output of 6 volts. It is labeled as such, and I have tested it with a volt meter.
I also have a USB wall charger (DC, right?) with and input of 100-240 volts (50-60 Herts, .2 amps) and output of 5 volts -.. 1 amp.
Basically, I want to be able to solder wires from the hand crank device to the board of the charger. The hand crank was connected to a board that had a 3.6 volt 80 mah battery. I desoldered that...
So basically, I am wondering what parts I will need to convert the wall charger board to allow 6 volt input and have a 5 volt output. I'm not sure, but I think it may involve replacing resistors.
If necessary, I can post picutres.
