Yep, just turn the switch off and the charge jack is connected straight to the battery. Nothing wrong with the Voltwatch, it is useful.....but it only shows what the servos and RX are drawing as you jiggle the sticks with the plane at your feet.
It "only shows" ? Ok. What does an ESV show? You can't use the ESV during flight either. So, the purpose of the Voltwatch is to give you a visual indication of the electrical status of your aircraft. Battery charge condition, servo draw. What else is there?
I am not saying it is a REPLACEMENT for an ESV, just a good tool to give the pilot a quick check before and after flying.
