These will work fine as long as your driver is getting the right amount of voltage that it needs. Those batteries will be 4.2 volts at full charge.

For charging, it depends on the capacity of the battery. I have seen these smaller ones with different capacities, depending on the brand. But the rule of thumb, is no more than a 1C charge rate.

Example: A 700mAh battery should not be charged with more than .7 amps...

Those are non rechargeable batteries. DO NOT CHARGE THEM!
