Wikipedia says that rapid charging will shorten the lifespan when compared to trickle charging, but it doesn't say anything defining "rapid" as far a C values, and doesn't have any source cited.

I'm probably going to charge my 4500mah packs at 9A. I'll be happy with cutting charge time in half compared to my lipos, and hopefully with swapping the two packs back and forth in my conservatively setup TC3 I will have little, or possibly no downtime in between runs.
