+LT3652 Charger - Tested OK
+
+Specs:
+	-8.4V float-voltage
+	-2A charging current - make sure your battery can handle it!
+	-No balancing, manual cell-voltage monitoring required.
+
+Notes:
+	-If a 12V regulator with sufficient current-handling capabilities can be found, use that instead of a 15V one.
+	-Voltage regulator and LT3652 get HOT. Heatsinking is required, forced-air highly recommended.
+	-NTC footprint does not need to be populated.
+	-Charge LED will flicker if no battery is connected - this is supposed to happen.
+
+Future:
+	-uC control.
+	-Balaning.
+	-Better heatsinking.
