I put a battery in a steel pan out on the concrete patio and charged overnight - the LED went Red to Green overnight and the battery was still cool in the morning, so all went well.
The timer sounds like a good solution for indoor safe charging, but I'll still do so in a pan on a patio block, just in case... My son got a little battery-powered remote control race car many years ago, and the battery scorched the Formica counter top when it overheated during charging. So yeah, those lithiums can be nasty without proper circuitry and care.
