Although we can't be sure, I don't think it overcharged. The battery management circuit prevents it from overcharging.

It means that I should turn off tekkeon when I don't use DR1000S?
There have been reports of the DR discharging overnight after the device was turned off. It is suspected that the device does not always turn off properly, due to some part of the software not terminating. This was particularly a problem for the 1.x firmware. Although 2.x reduced the chance of this happening, I think it was never completely solved.

If you leave your Tekkeon connected, it does not really hurt when this occurs. The only issue is that if the DR does not turn off properly, it will not only discharge its internal battery, but also the Tekkeon. You can then not use the Tekkeon to turn it on.
