Default What are gear Drives (gear Boxes) for?

I've tried to find some additional information on the web but wasn't very sucess full. All that I understand about them is that they will make the propeller's rpm's slower than the rpm's that the actual moter is putting out. Wouldn't you want more rpms?

Also, if anyone knows, how fast do batteries charge in the feild (the Li-ions 1500mAh)? Also, if i had 3 for one plane (4500 mAh) then would I need 3 chargers or could I could I charge them With only one.

Thanks
Cameron
