Another source for smart-chargers are the Black & Decker chargers for cordless-drill batteries. Some of the smart-chargers even have an adjustable trigger-point for when they switch from charge to trickle mode.
So let's say that I use a battery pack similar to the one you setup. Although the Battery Tender looks like a pretty nice (and expensive) charger, could I get by using something like this?:

Sorry for the dumb questions, but I'm pretty new to this stuff. I'll make sure to get some pictures up once this is completed as is looks pretty cool on my bike so far.
