You really don't want to trickle charge li-ion cells...

LiFePO4 are nominal 3.2v cells that can come hot off the charger at ~3.6v, so keep that in mind.

Once any lithium-ion cell reaches its correct CC/CV state of charge (3.6v, 4.2v, or 4.35v,) the charge should be terminated. They're not NiMH, or Ni-Cads that can stand a maintenance (trickle) charge.

It can be unsafe.

If you don't know much about li-ion cells and chargers, you can kind of puruse this forum linked below.

RC forums are another good source, but those guys routinely explode their packs in a hurry to charge them back up, so they're probably not the best guys to follow when charging for a home HiFi component.
