Sansa Clip+ Increase Charging Current

Please excuse my bad English:
I would also like to install a stronger battery in my Sansa Clip + and Clip Zip. Two questions:
The Amazon link to the 970mA battery is not right? The battery alone is 41x35x18mm in size and thus does not fit into the Clip + or Clip Zip. Which battery exactly did you take?
Can you explain exactly what you did to adjust the charging current to the battery stronger?
Thank you!

Ich würde auch gern einen stärkeren Akku in meine Sansa Clip+ und Clip Zip einbauen. Dazu zwei Fragen:
Der Amazon Link zu dem 970mA Akku ist doch nicht richtig? Der Akku allein ist 41x35x18mm groß und passt somit nicht in den Clip+ oder Clip Zip. Welchen Akku genau hast du genommen?
Kannst du genau erklären, was du getan hast, um den Ladestrom auf den stärkeren Akku anzupassen?
Vielen Dank!

Another question is whether it's such a good idea to subject a wee little 200 mAh battery to a 2C charge on a regular basis. I'm not sure what recommendations are for treatment of these little cells (are they LiIon or LiPo anyway?), but a 400 mA charge current seems like quite a lot.

saratoga:
400 ma into 1 ah is 0.4C which is fairly conservative for a modern battery.

The original settings were about 0.5C which should also be fine.

The battery is much much too large to go into the player, so you will have to attach it externally.

toehser:
Have you thought about an external charger pack?  Like, say, http://www.amazon.com/PowerBot%C2%AE-Universal-External-FlashLight-Indicator/dp/B00EK6MIQO/ref=sr_1_20?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1388356129&sr=1-20 (or many many others, etc. etc.) - this is the way I would go... ijs...
