RE: Cooling
Cooling outlets out to be at least twice the inlet size. Naturally the more area both have the better, but keep the ratio and be reasonable and you'll be fine.
the charge time will depend a bit on your charger, but 1 -1/12 hours is typical, unless you've got some of the new very high end fast charge cells. My guess is that if you had them you wouldn't be asking the question.
