Essentially, yes, that's about all you do, except you insert one new step that become habit:
When the cells come out, see what the voltage is (You are simply putting a lead on each of the -/+ of the cell, and its says the voltage....and takes about 5 seconds or so.) You see how low they went, and you now know how much you discharged them, and, if they went too low for example, or, don't really NEED recharging yet, etc....
After charging them, you do the same thing...and confirm that they recharged to the state you expected.
If you only have lights with only one cell, some of this can be overkill...but, if you use lights with 2 or more cells, you do want them to be at the same state of charge when they are in series. (So you can use cells that are matched)
Once you get used to it, its literally a few seconds to touch the cell's poles with the DMM and you're done....very fast and easy. I have a DMM with the leads right next to the charging station...and where I stack the charged cells.
For older cells that are starting to show differing charge rates (After 3-5 years or so...it happens), so you might have some that come off at the low end of 4.1 v and some at the higher end of 4.1 v (~4.17 v might be a rested new cell for example).
If I have some 4.10's, they go together, and the 4.17's go into another group...so I can load a light with cells that are similar more easily when sorted by voltage.
As I have many many lights, and cells, I also tend to sort them by history (What light they go in...so the cycling history is also similar).
I don't bother with history for single cell lights, as there's no cell matching on internal resistance to worry about.
Anyway, if you measure the voltage regularly, its a LOT easier than you think, and it gives you a lot of info you didn't know you needed yet.
