Had two cells to charge and only a one cell charger. Used my metal collar stays and magnets to put the cells in parallel.

I've used the collar stays and magnets before to put 4 cells in parallel when charging at home with my hobby charger.

I bought a set of the metal collar stays in various sizes on Amazon and a lot of them were too long to use in my shirts. However they make great busbars for charging!
