What cells are they? For another project I am thinking of, what do they need for charging purposes? (I assume that the PCB deals with low voltage cutoff, could it deal with a 5V source for charging?)

The cell ID is in the picture. I cannot respond to what your charging needs may be for your project.

My reference is strictly intended for the Roomba and utilizes the standard charging accessories provided by IRobot for charging their NiMH batteries.
