Desk of Ladyada – Kiddo Kart Repair #adafruit #battery @adafruit
We’re fixing up a bumper car toy that BabyAda enjoys. We recently plugged it in to recharge, and afterward, it stopped moving. After some disassembly, we found the culprit: the battery inside is 12V, but the charger is 24V!
It works fine if you’re charging it for just an hour, but we had left it charging overnight, and it damaged the battery, so it doesn’t hold a charge anymore.
