Yes, decent link. Just glimpsed it quickly.

Couple of notes. Like he said go with the lower capacity LSDs (low self discharge rate) batteries like Eneloop and hybrids. Most 2500 mAh and higher capacity batteries tend not to last.

BC900 is a nice charger. However, make sure to increase the charge rate. Default 200 mA rate it too slow. For instance, for a 2000 mAh battery go with a 1000 mA rate.
