Notes:
Choose the Max1873 R, S, or T version depending on the number of series cells in your battery pack.
Resistors R5 and R6 are each 100KΩ for battery packs that use 3.7 volt nominal/4.2 volt maximum cells.
These values must be changed for older battery packs that use 3.6 volt nominal/4.1 volt maximum cells.
Using the formulas in the Max1873 data sheet gives new values of: R5 = 54.9KΩ and R6 = 147KΩ.
