Re: battery question
I've had the backup battery get hot upon recharging too so you're not alone. The charger seems to just feed the battery voltage until a human unplugs it. I'd recommend getting a smart charger that can detect when the battery is done charging by measuring the voltage or just turning itself off in a certain amount of time. I wonder if IFI would really send us a charger that would could harm the backup battery. But there's no visible harm to the battery or to its voltage.
