father (Darth Sidious ;p) asked a "Stupid Question"

as why the automotive cellphone charger finishes much quicker than the wall supply
heres what i came up with (though i'm not so shure about it)

Simplified Battery Charging

related formulas ::
(*) -- ! not proven !
E(J) = Q(A·h)·ε(V)
ΔE = dt·P(W)
ΔQ = I·t
dQ(A·s) = dt(s)·I(A)
ε = a·rb = E/Q
Δε = a·Δ(rb) = Δ(E/Q)
P = U²/r = I²·r

α²Q - αE = 0
(Q/QMAX)² - (E/EMAX) = 0
(Q/QMAX)² = E/EMAX (*)
Q² = Q²MAX/EMAX(=ϰ) ·E
E/Q = Q/ϰ
ε = a·rb
r = (ε/a)1/b
(E=)Q²/ϰ - Q·ε(=E) = 0
Q/ϰ - ε = 0
E = √(ϰ·E)ε
(E/ϰ)' - ε = 0
E = Q·ε
ε = E/Q =  Q/ϰ
ε = u + U = i·r + U
εTF = i·rTF + U
εB = i·rB + U
εTF - i·rTF = εB - i·rB
εTF - εB = i·( i·rTF - i·rB)
i = ΔεX/ΔrX

1x versus 2x (AA) powerable SCS switch simulation experiment

the goal was to study a possibility using the SCS bi-stable switch for a memory element (trigger)

it seems the 3.8V is here a critical lower limit below what the implementation of anything gets very difficult -- determining the operating range & conditions
a somewhat complete test : timer : driving pulse former : electrical switces : 1bit RAM : readout buffer -- 1x AA schematic
(an old thing revisited) here the critical voltage is around 1.8V - to drive next switch without pulse amplifier -- 2x AA schematic
and thats it for now -- btw. incase you want to build any of such you need to separately tune/verify. each trigger-stage -- 1-st as an input 1 then as an output one /!\ besides , the set of any number of , may form a closed system (so that adding a stage may require retuning the entire N+1 stages) + trivia -- you also need to verify error free operation under varying supply and specified frequency×duty combinations (and even then you still may expect occasional transition failures for 2x AA v.) -- so if you need a complex app. use commercial "pre-tested" logical circuitry (each variant of witch requires a specific measures to gain an error free operation also ...)

about some LT Op.-Amp.-s

I usually don't use OpAmp.-s in simulations but when there's a need for comparator or dif.-Amp then using one'd decrease a setup time significantly ...

... i've noticed that not in all situations i've used a proper OpAmp for the specific parameters in that spot of the grid (rather "worked somewhere else" → "should work in here")

so here's a ::

for example :: for the LT1028(1)/LT1128(2) is shown V.S (±V) = [ 4 , 22 ] ← here V.S = ±4 V is valid only for(1),(2) @ [ TA = 25°C ]
also the Datasheet shows Supply.Lim = ±18V** ( for V.S.Abs.Max ±22V [ TA = ... 105°C ] ) and Supply.Lim = ±16V ( for V.S.Abs.Max ±16V [ TA = ... 125°C ] )
Note! : ** -- shows a testing range some 80% of that of the Abs.Max value ↑↑ /!\
