No, mine came with an 8.4v NiMh battery. Weather hasn't been that good recently so I haven't tried it out yet, well I could have today but I was busy . Oh well.

As you have already been told the changer is automatic and will shut off and at a preprogramed voltage it will turn back on if the battery isn't used for a long time. However, let us all remember where these batteries are likely made (China). So as you have been advised remember to charge your bat. on a fire proof surface and I personally would never leave a bat. on charge when I'm n ot home or when sleeping. I guess I just don't trust the manufacture very much.

When it indicates that the charging is finished, does it continue to pump power into the batter or does it cut off? ie could I leave it charging over night without having to disconnect the battery once finished?

My Esky Came Assembled But The Blades Are Loose. Does The Centrifical Force Straighten Out Or Do I Supposed To Tighten So They Are Aways In A Straigh Line?
