Suitable for 1S (3.7V) LiPo and Li-ion battery.

For a 1S battery, the fully charged voltage value is 4.2V. This circuit activates the green led between 3.7V and 4.2V. This means the battery can be used. The voltage value that is considered empty is 3.3V. In order for a battery to have a long life, it should not be used at voltages below 3.3V

This indicator gives a warning between 3-7V and 3.3V by enabling both leds to be active together. When only the red led lights up, the critical level has been reached. In other words, a voltage value lower than 3.3V has been reached.
