I'm looking into these for my fr-2le as well.  I ran out of batt. power Monday night with AA rechargeables.  I copied this from an abay add from all-batteries I think.  It looks like the higher amp charging is for the higher mAh batts.   I'm sure your batteries are over 2000mAh so I would guess you would charge at 2A.   I hope this helps.
