that circuit is for two batteries. if you have two 3.6 cells, it will work fine. theres a wiring diagram at the bottom of the page.

for only one cell, this is the best choice:

you are probably using two batteries for 7.2 volts, and then regulating (or converteing) the 3.3 off of that, right? it is also possible to get a steady 3.3 off of one cell (with a special circuit), and then step UP to 7.2 volts with a dc-dc. its probably harder though...

Maybe the lemon juice flux is corroding the board.
