The next thing I am going to do is make a charger for these. Yeah, you can use your R/C charger, but I am also going to want something smaller for trips and such. I've already drawn up a circuit which uses a constant current charge (0.3A) with temperature peak detection. It will charge two cells at a time, but the circuit is simple enough that making banks of two to get 4, 6, 8, etc will be easy enough. Power requirements will be ~6vdc and ~0.35A for each bank of two cells. So, charging 4 cells at once will require 6v @ 0.7A, which cheap "wall warts" can supply.
