There’s no evidence when the recharge is finished, therefore we suggest you
detach the wall adaptor from the radio or remove G7 Pro from the desktop
charger cradle once the recharge is complete.
Here below some information about the recharge time (indicative) for some
batteries of dierent capacity:
