http://www.aaroncake.net/circuits/amp.htm

ive never finished building this project because the IC that is needed is really hard to find

the maker of this project says it does work

You're finding it difficult to obtain the part because it has been discontinued.

The replacement part is the TDA2003 (successor to the TDA2002, which will
also work).

You can find the part at mouser.com or digikey.com for between $1.40 to $2.10.

You can use Google to search for "TDA2003" or "TDA2002" to find many uses
for the part, and many simple circuits you can build.

That battery will work, but you might find 8 D cells to be less expensive.

You can trickle charge it with a cheap wall-wart style power supply.
Find one that puts out 15 volts at 300 milliamps or less, and let it charge
overnight.
