Ok point taken on item 2 - pity, It would have bee nice to box them in a pannier mount case!1) assuming you can identify.the output terminals you can parallel or series them ( at least I have with matuka packs) Series adds the volts, parallel the ah.
2) no, absolutely not. You need to charge each pack individually with the charger it came with
3) no, but test them. Do they all give voltage ? What voltage ? Also look inside the device ( drill etc) you may find it had only two terminals) in which case it's two to charge and two to discharge (the ones.net that match the drill are discharge)
flapajack - any chance of a pic of the hedgetrimmer connections for the battery please? I sent a friend to pick up the battery on the way home from work as it would be a 1hour detour for me to get one! - so I'm not sure what the actual connections are for drawing current.
Thanks
James
