Lithium-ion batteries operate differently. They charge under a constant current and switch to a continuous voltage later in the charging cycle. The charging process reduces the current as the battery reaches its full capacity to prevent overcharging.
However (quoting you): charging at a constant voltage (say 4.2V) so long as the maximum current is limited to a reasonable value for the cell means you will have constant current charger till your cell is at ~95%. Up to this point the voltage across the battery will be less than 4.2V if you measure it.
Typically, you charge lithium batteries by applying the CC-CV scheme. CC-CV stands for Constant Current - Constant Voltage. It denotes a charging curve where the maximum allowed charging current is applied to the battery as long as the cell voltage is below its maximum value, for example, 4.2 Volts.
It’s a common belief that the voltage of a lithium-ion battery can accurately indicate its charge state. However, this is only partially true. The lithium-ion battery’s voltage increases as it charges, but the relationship is not linear. It can vary based on several factors, including the battery’s age and temperature.
The most appropriate method for charging batteries among them is with a power supply that has constant current voltage drooping type characteristics (Far Left) where a constant current range is used for charging batteries with a constant current. The other two characteristics should not be used to charge batteries.
Same applies to the constant current power supply. It will push constant current into battery until battery voltage rises high enough so the supply can't output constant current any more. But at this point the voltage will be the max output voltage, e.g. 12V, which will be way too much for a 1S or 2S pack.
