This six-unit intelligent rapid mains charger ensures that the batteries only receive the correct amount of charge. Charge status is indicated on each pod via a multi-coloured LED so you will know whether the battery is fully charged before use. The front pocket accommodates the radio complete with attached battery; the rear pocket accommodates the battery only. Charging commences with the front pocket and when the charge is complete it switches to the rear pocket. Charger operates between 110-230V. Due to the high capacity of the HX Li-Ion battery pack, charge time is between 1.5 - 2 hours.
