    ok fine i’d put there a current limiter which you can make with 2 transistors and a diode. no need for an entire microcontroller. it’s often included with batteries these days anyway

      I believe lithium ion batteries need custom chips just to charge and discharge smartly

      Shit, even connecting to modern USB c to negotiate voltage you need a controller
