So this is pretty much how my setup is going to be.
Charger:

Battery:

Now all I need to do is find an old computer PSU and learn how to convert it. Are there any good guides that you would recommend I check out regarding this topic?
I assume that the +12v rail and wattage of whatever PSU I get should be above the max wattage and amperage of the charger in order to work at their full potential. So in this case I would need to find a 200+ watt PSU with 12v rails of at least 10 amps. Is this correct?

Yea that is why I want to get the second one, as I will be able to charge my battery (or batteries when I get more) much faster. I just like to have that headroom
Addition: I just read that I can easily modify an xbox 360 power brick to do what I want. This seems like a much more viable way as people are basically giving these away.
