I agree that there are much faster charging methods, but the slow one has
the advantage of simplicity (this was implied in the original question)...
I wonder too how to design a connector with contacts that reliably carry 4
to 10 A currents and enable precise voltage measurement, all this operated
by a robot with not-so-strong motors ?

| (...) Yes Brian, and read my P.S. ;-) (...) This is not necessairly true. If you use the right charge method, load time less then 15 minutes, without degrading the batteries (even with positiv effect on the lifetime/capacity) is very well possible (...)
