We have designed special circuitry into the Instrument Transceiver (IT) to protect the electronic components.  The IT automatically turns the charger off after 3 hours. (For devices repaired or purchased after February 2010 the IT automatically turns the charger off after 6 hours.)  As with any Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery, leaving instruments connected to the charger for extended periods (i.e. weeks) can reduce the overall life of the battery.  Leaving ITs connected over the weekend will not affect the batteries.
