Does the light stay on all the time, or go off after your phone or tablet is fully charged? I am looking for a charger/night light for travel.

FYI, the charger stops charging after the battery is full so it won't burn out your battery!

Yes the light does stay on if the unit is plugged in, this indicates that the unit is working and charge is available to be used.

That's a good question. It stays on all the time, and seems to be indicative of whether the charger itself is getting power, not whether your device is fully charged. I have not been able to decipher whether it actually stops sending power to your device when the device is charged, so for that reason, would not buy it if that's the most important feature to you. However, it could work great for a night light for travel!

On constantly whether device is fully charged or not. Not close to a night light though. Works very well.

It stays on whole time at 50% reduced brightness through out night time and when motion detected it brighten to full 100% brightness. It stays completely turned off during day time. It's all automatic. So far, it works pretty good past one & half month in use.

I've had it stay charged through the night (like 8-10 hours), but have always re-docked it by morning. Hope that helps!

The light should go out completely after full charge - shouldn't take that long to fill 5 bar so you may have an issue. I have 4 of these - one for every car and one for the house for tablets/smartphones.

I don't think the light on the cradle ever turns off. It will never over-charge the battery. You can leave it on the charger all of the time or just do so overnight. With infrequent use, I only charge it once a month. I have completely drained the battery in the past; in those cases, just for peace of mind, I would keep it on the charger for more than a day.

The light should stay on until the speaker is fully charged if it is working after u charge it, it's probably fine

I don't charge mine very often as the charge lasts a very long time. To be honest all I do is plug it in overnight and unplug in the morning. I've never looked for the light to change. Sorry that doesn't really answer your question but it's what works for me.

Well I honestly charge mines all night long and the next day its ready to be used ....but I think the longer you charged it it will stay charged regardless of if the light is on , one time I left it on the charger for days and it stayed charged for a long time

Yes, very well. I accidentally left my light on for over 8 hours necessitating my first charge. It took less than 4 hours (I was gone for that timeframe) and its back to full charge.

I always leave it on charge overnight. Sometimes a little longer, and it seems to be ok. It is a very powerful light, but the instructions say to only turn it on for 30 seconds at a time, I guess it's because the drain is high, and it gets hot. So, for a quick look around, it's great. But not for continuous use.

All I can say is that I have two of these chargers, one for more than 5 years, and I have never seen the red lights stay on constantly. Usually within 6 hours the batteries are charged and the red lights goes off. Hope this helps.

Wow! You couldn't ask a simple question, like how do you like it's features ? I never noticed if it shuts off, but I really like the swivel outlet feature, It actually allow you to use every outlet, even with most electronic devices chargers, and all their weird shapes. I love it. I will however check it at night to see if it shuts off by itself ! Maybe it does if nothing you have plugged in, is turned on.

Mine has a red light that comes on and stays on while charging. I will update when it's done charging to let you know what it does.OK, after charging the red light went off. At that point I disconnected from the charger and reconnected it, the light came on for a second and went right back off so it looks like you're fully charged. Hope this helps and enjoy!!

There's no on-off switch. To get a full charge, I usually just plug it in at night and unplug in the morning. However, I think it stays blue. When it's charging, it blinks. When it's charged, the light stays on.

I use it for my cell and tablet and it stays charged for about 3 days to a week depending on use. As for keeping it plugged in, i would for safety just charge it and turn it off. If its not in use, it turns off to not burn the battery out. It is well worth the money. Mine has paid for itself more then once

My light (green) stay's on when charging. It goes off when complete. Mine only blinks when the battery is low. It sounds as if your battery might be faulty. I never use tech support on anything. They usually know less about their products than we do!
