18650 battery charging / chargers
Liteace:
Ive got a few battery powered tools , lamps that I want to convert to use a few 18650 batteries, One thing that is confusing me is the charging, Ive see these little charging / management PCB but none have any meter or LED to indicate what state the battery/ies are in.
I have a few pieces of equipment, lamps, phone, laptop and even the cheapest lamp has a green/red charging-charged LED indicator
Is there anything I can add to these charging / management PCB ?

It's pretty easy to find charging boards that have status LEDs. For example (first hit on Aliexpress for "TP5100"): https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000130857356.html

For completeness, TP4056 charging modules also seem to routinely include status LEDs. The first two hits on Aliexpress (sorted by sales):

Thanks is the TP5100 just for a single 18650 ?
Thanks again
