JR radios for USA use don't. I often charge the batteries in my JR radios
through the charging jacks with my Triton charger. Peak chargers like the
Triton can't work with diodes in the circuit.

I also once made the same mistake that Scobie made and plugged the wrong
trickle charger into one of my JR radios. In my case the fuse blew right away
and aside from that, no harm was done.
