Default XL on/off switch

Does the XL come with a charging lead? Anybody got a stock #/model for a switch with a charging lead that is a direct/no modification drop in for the Savage

I am not sure, but I think the XL simply has an access port in the X-batt box so you can unplug the hump pack and charge it.

For all my Savages (all pre XL), I had to buy the Futaba and JR switches with the charging leads built in.


If someone knows for sure if the XL has this charging lead built into the switch, I too want to know.

I stand corrected, I did more searching, and the XL switch does have a built-in charging lead.

The PN is 80579

Man do I really dislike taters_net_dealz! Two bad experiences with them for such minor things that made me not want to deal with them again.

Why not get the actual radio box AND the switch from nitronutzzz for a few $ more? $12.49 for the box and harness, and probably more than $10 for just the harness by the time the auction ends.

Becuase I JUST (yesterday) bought a new radio box becuase I lost my lid, and I don't really feel like buying another one...

I layed it on my kitchen table while my truck was charging, and a few days later when I went to put it back on, it wasn't there... I searched my whole house and it was nowhere to be found...My guess is my mom threw it away, becuase she always gets onto me when I leave my RC stuff in the house.
