[chbot] 14430 Li-Ion Cells

[edwardsw at steadfast.co.nz]

Hi Mark

They stock both chemistries, but only have 14430 size in LiFePo4 (3.2V) 500mAh.
Pretty sure this is the one you need:

LiFePO4 is lower voltage than Li-Ion 
LiFePO4 is nominal 3.2V, max 3.65V (good for many 3.3V devices)
Li-Ion is nominal 3.6V, max 4.2V.

Bunnings also have LiFePo4 in 14500 and 18500 formats

LiPo as 18650

Thanks Wes.

Bunnings only stock LiFePo4, which has 4.2V terminal charge, which I 
believe is lower than Li-Ion.
