500mA is more than enough already. Lion battery should not be charged above 0.8C, most charging circuit in MP4 charge at around 0.5C or less to prolong battery life.
Ok so is that why i can't get the 3rd bar on my battery when i charge it? I have tried 3 batteries so far and i've tried different chargers but im not able to get the 3rd bar on the battery.
