Hey guys, just a safety heads up, if you have a Rovan or KM RTR kit do NOT leave the cheap china POS Rx charger connected to your vehicle. This charger will NOT shut off after a full charge is reached. The red/green LED status light will stay red (charging) indefinitely and cause your battery to get excessively hot. I used the charger like a week ago and didn't have an issue. Plugged it it, showed red, after about 2 hrs the light was green, so ok full charge done. I used it a few days ago and stupid me forgot to check and left it plugged in for about 36 hrs came out and I felt some heat from the battery case cover and it never went into "green" mode still was in charge mode. I disassembled the radio case and the rx battery was way to hot for my comfort. I also noticed the wall plug was also hot. Head my warning, be EXTREMELY cautions and keep a close eye on your charger if you need to use the cheap wall charger. Im going to use my Tenergy from now on.
