Ok, thanks guys. I ordered a 12v 2A regulated power supply and am going with a C/2 charge rate. I designed and built this layout last night:
I hope i got it right. The last thing is to add LED indicators. The datasheet gives this example:
Does that mean i should put one LED between R1 and V+ without any other resistors? (i'm used to putting a 1k resistor before my LEDs, but think R1 handles it here?)
Then a 2nd LED between V+ and FASTCHARGE with a 470 ohm resistor preceding it? Why does it say 470 ohm minimum? Should i just use the 1k resistors i have around?
Thanks again for all your help!
