Is it safe to leave the charger connected at all times?

it's not recommended to leave the oontz ultra portable speaker connected to the charger all the time once the rechargeable battery is fully charged.

I wouldnt leave it charged all the time. Could effect the life of the rechargeable battery.

It is safe to do so, but not the best practice in reference to prolonging the battery life. Having the battery run down and subsequently recharging it, keeps it working longer. The idea of bluetooth (wireless) goes out the window by keeping it plugged in all the time. Use it for what it's worth.

Yes, same with any electronic device. Always unplug it when it's fully charged.

Yes. It will run off the charger (any mini USB charger or PC) while left on. Don't leave it off with the charger attached.

Yes. The device can still be used while on the charger. Charging does not affect the usage at all.

There should be no harm, I have had no issues with leaving it on the charger after reaching 100% and have not heard of any problems. That said, I have but don't normally leave it on the charger for extended periods out of habit, not concern for the batteries condition.

It seems to. I leave it charging overnight and to my knowledge nothing wrong happens. What I don't like is the charger remains warm, maybe 100-110 deg F, when it is disconnected from the battery , but still plugged into the wall outlet.

I do not. I did not want to run the risk of any possible damage to the battery or charger. The battery holds its charge, so there is no need.

We leave our batteries on the chargers all the time they are not is use. So far, there have been no significant detrimental effects.

No. As soon as you plug in the charger, your phone/stuff will do an emergency shutdown. All that happens to my stuff atleast.

There is no need to worry about charging time. Just insert the battery into the charging station and when the battery is fully charged the charging stops. There is no harm done by leaving the battery in the charging station indefinitely

I leave mine on the charger 24 X 7. Charging prior to a necessary use would, I think, not be a viable option. Just plug it in and forget it. It will be ready when you need it.

I have a 2 port charger and I've never had a problem leaving it plugged in when not in use. I hope this helps.

It's up to you. It does not hurt the charger to leave it plugged in. But if you want to unplug it, that's OK too. I leave mine plugged in for convenience.

I see the first answer of this question mentioned that it should be disconnected as soon as it has full charge or almost full charge. I understood the different way. It can be charging for 24/7 continuously without unplug until you are going to use it. So which method is Righr?

I believe so, although I haven't had any issues just leaving mine plugged in all the time.

Yes, to a point. While no damage is done to the charger or batteries outright there will be over a period of time be a shortened life of the batter itself. As with any rechargeable power source it is best to deplete it as low as you can before recharging. Leaving it constantly plugged in means continuous heat which shortens the life span of the battery.
