Buzzy,

Good way to avoid accidents: stick a tag on the opposite from the main label, and note the slow and fast charge rates, and any other data that may not be on the label (like NiCd/NiMH, cell count, voltage/amps, etc.) If you have a printer, print up a label neatly, and stick it on.

Also, a label for slow and fast charge rates for the different types of batteries can be printed and stuck onto the charger (I'm going to make a 'cheat-sheet' and laminate it)
