Hello,
Im trying to get some information on wiring up a lipo batt charger to ac power.
Just want to confirm if my diagram will work or if I need to do it diff way.
Thanks

Concerns:

I'd probably look for an AC adapter with a larger current rating just to be safe.
The polarity needs to be correct when wiring to the charger.
The lower + connection feeding the hot glue blob (LED?) would see ~4.5V when using batteries. As shown, you'll be feeding it 6V. Can the hot glue blob tolerate 6V?
