when charging do you keep the switch on or off

I always keep the switch off at all times and when charging. I only turn it on when needed to jump start the car.

I believe it is best to keep the switch off. However there have been times when I forgot to turn the switch off as it was charging. It did not appear to make any difference. Unit continued to charge fine.

To my knowledge, you can charge it either way. The safest way would be to have the switch in the off position.

Yes, that's the way I always do it.. This jumper is real reliable. Just don't leave it on the charger for more than 1 day..

Switch off, and you will see a red light while charging. The light goes out when it is done charging.

That's how it is. When it charging it does not stay on to let u know that it's charging.

I leave it on all the time. I don't remember it having a on/off switch. Also the battery lasts months on a full charge.

No, charging light stays on all the time. I leave it plugged in all the time and have used it till it is completely dead. It doesn't seem to have lost any time per charge yet. So far the only draw back I have with it is that there is no wall mount for it.

.Direction say to leave it on the charger all the time except for when you're using it so it will be charged whenever you need it

When you charge the device, it will be automatically turned off...you have to reconnect it after it is being charged!

I use mine while it is charging. Never left it on all night, but have used it while plugged in.

After charging, you need to turn the monitor off with the switch in the back. Alternately, if this switch is off - the monitor won't charge at all. If you leave the switch on after charging - it will discharge the battery slowly. So the proper sequence is: plug in charger, turn on monitor with rear switch (LED should light up red on front), After charge is done (LED turns green) turn off switch in back.

There is an on and off switch. What you do is charge the case all the way. To know when it is fully charged the charger adapter will be at room temp. Then you use it as a backup charger or u can use it when the iphone is charged and the case will just keep the iphone charges to 100% until the battery in the case runs out then you use the iphone battery. You need to charge the case to 100% and then use until it doesn't work and charge again. To get best results. Should take 3-4 hours.

Yes the lights will be on while charging. If the phone is in the case it will charge the phone first then the case. If you power the case off while charging, it will not charge the phone. I hope I was able to help you.

I do not believe there is an off switch as the dock is always available to put into and the usb ports are always on so you can use them to charge batteries etc when not in use for computer

The switch positions are, on, off, and combine. In the on mode while under power the relay will sence the voltage of the starter battery and switch to charge the house batteries when it is full. To charge while docked or trailered you will need a onboard or plug in charger. Always charge with the switch in the off position to prevent damage to your rectifier.

I'm not sure if you are suppose to, but I never do. There is a green light that comes on when you plug it in and blinks while charging. it turns sold when charging complete and goes out completely when unplugged from car.

There is no switch on the charger. when you plug the charger in it automatically turns onTurns off when unpluged.

No I've charged it time and time again with it off. Its best that it's turned off during such process due to the fact in its on state it will be corresponding as a active device.

When charging, the red light only turns off automatically (and the device stops charging) if the switch on the side is off as well. If you only turn off the top button, it'll keep trying to charge. Don't wait for an amber light indicating that the battery is fully charged... I find that to be misleading... at least it has never happened to me.
