5 Batteries
The rechargers chosen on the Intel® Edison kit for Arduino* and the Intel® Edison Breakout Board were designed for
lithium-ion or lithium-polymer batteries. Follow the manufacturer’s guidelines when charging batteries. Generally,
charging current should not exceed 50 to 70% of the rated capacity. For example, a 200 mAH battery should be
charged with 70% • 200 mA = (140 mA).
The Intel® Edison kit for Arduino* has a 100 mA charging current; the Intel® Edison Breakout Board has a 190 mA
charging current.
