Charging through switch

[simon109]

Hi,

I'm using a Futaba HD switch with 1950mAh rx pack, normally I unplugged the battery and charge like that but was wondering will it be ok to leave battery connected and charge through switch ? I always charge my rx and tx at a maximum of 1C so it will only be 1.9A ?

I always charge my RX pack through the switch.

Last wednesday I noticed this will be ok, just dont change the + and -...

Actually you are better off charging thru the charge lead built into the switch.
If you unplug the pack every time, the gold plating on the contacts in the connector will wear away and you will end up with an intermittent connection down the road.
