Does this cradle have over charge protection so the battery doesn't overheat?

I don't know specifically about that. I leave my phone in the cradle all the time, overnight and have not had any problems. It really does work well with the phone - not one issue so far.

I believe it does as I have never had a battery overheat as a result of the charging dock.

The cradle has two small pins that make contact on the bottom of the phone so anything between the phone and the cradle will prevent charging.

No. On the left side toward the bottom is the charging contacts. Cradle only holds the tablet in landscape mode.

It seems to. I leave it charging overnight and to my knowledge nothing wrong happens. What I don't like is the charger remains warm, maybe 100-110 deg F, when it is disconnected from the battery , but still plugged into the wall outlet.

As I understand from the instructions, you can leave the battery in the charger. It will not overcharge.

The radio/battery is warmer to touch when charging, but does't get hot. Charge in a ventilated area and do not over charge.

No. I have not had any issue with the device overheating and I run with it in 100+ degree temps.

Not that I have found. We keep ours plugged into the charger, just a blue light that it's charged and have not had a problem with over charging.

I do not know if there is a mechanism to prevent over charging. For your second question: there is an LED with various patterns of blinking to indicate charge level. "Slow red blinking: 0-50%. Slow green blinking: 50-80%. Fast green blinking: 80-99%. Solid green: fully charged."

The cradle can be attached to your power source. The cradle does not have a power source of its own.

No. I have purchased several phone batteries through Amazon and they all worked fine. I don't remember any overheating. I will order through Amazon again if and when my I-Phone needs a new battery. As far as "Chasing the Warranty" as Ty was saying, Amazon puts a lot of pressure on it's vendors to honor all procuct claimes or loose the priveledge to sell through the Amazon website. In my experience, the vendor has been all over it when I've had an issue. That's another reason to love the power of Amazon.

I would say it is not, there are 4 dimples on the edge of the nexus that need to contact the cradle, anything that got in the way, as this case would appear to do would stop charging

I don't know the answer to this question. Sorry. I just plug mine in for a few hours and have never been concerned about over-charging it. The first one I had lasted for several years before it finally died--probably from dropping it too much.

The Cradle works with either the default battery or the extended life battery.

No, it does not heat up or drain the battery and it allows all touch screen functions to work perfectly. I love it!

Nope. I usually put one four to five devices together, just the normal temp, no overheat. I have been using the charger for about two months, no issues.

Yes, the battery charges in the open bay behind the phones charging cradle.
