There is a thread on it over at RCgroups.com under batteries.

It really is a 3s charge system from most people. There is also a db terminator device that makes it really easy.

I run 6s so that I can use 2 3s packs. Since I charge 2 packs at once my setup is charging at 30+ amps :) The best thing is the cheap route costs you under $10.00 for everything you need. add another 10.00 if you want a db terminator. So for under 40.00 you can charge 6 a123 cells in under 10 min.

Brian don't forget that when using a charger the CV will really slow down the last 10% of the charge. I would say he could get 14 min to 90% charge.
