Hey, as long as I'm looking for free advice, I might as well ask for
some more...

I need to construct a battery powered portable demo.  I could design a
charging circuit around the bq24070 from TI, but assembling a leadless
QFN package by hand kinda scares me (and scares my technician friend
even more).

This seems like the sort of thing that a Batterys-backwards-R-Us or
Sparkfun (hmmm... I should go check there!) might already have.

Does anybody know of a supplier of Li-Ion battery packs complete with
charging circuits, DC supply input, and either a regulated or
unregulated output?

 Where might I find such a beast?
