I'd like that too, if just to balance the cells in my battery pack. Over time the load level between individual cells in the battery pack will start to differ; while some are almost empty others will be full. This will reduce the effective range of the battery pack and may damage the cells as they get underdepleted or overcharged.
A gentle overcharge may top off all cells while those that are already full will not get damaged. A trickle charge will not only give better initial performance, but better performance all round.
It's the not knowing how to that's holding me back for now.
