It also allows me to put the rx packs wherever I want and still be able to charge them because you can use up to a single 36" charge lead.

Now mind you; I do NOT do this with LiPo packs but virtually all of my models have two cell A123's for rx packs so removing them from the model to charge isn't necessary.

Using a switch with the built in charge jack eases the charging process AND no need to make a goofy charging adapter like you need to with a charger that won't charge through the balance port.
