this is from there site
"For the first charge it is best to do a 10 hour charge. To figure out the rate simply take the battery capacity and divide by 10. so a 2000mah battery would need to charge @ 2000/10 = 200mah. Once you have done a slow charge you can charge at 1C. Again. using 2000mah. at 1C that would be 2000mah charge (which is the same as 2amps). You must only use a peak charger to charge your packs. If you are not sure if your charger is a peak charger then please contact the charger manufacturer. CheapBatteryPacks.com is not liable for any damages. Customer excepts all risks when using hobby batteries for any purpose. Charging properly is the sole responsibility of the customer. Please see our policies section for more liability information."
other then that you should cycle them a few times, let them cool off in between .
