Is it safe to leave if plugged after it has been fully charged?

My husband has done this with his, and it has never over-heated... I am not sure what the instructions say about it, because I got this for my husband and he is the one that read the directions and deals with it.. I have this item sitting on one the side of my bathroom counter and it stays plugged in, along with his electric razor and even with both plugged in I have never had an issue.

My wife has made that by mistake on a couple occasions. It does not seem to damage the unit, however it does not fully charge properly. When you go to charge it the next time in the off position it will fully charge.

The manufacturer suggest keeping the unit plugged in since it has an automatic charger that keeps the unit charged without overcharging. The other models they recommend charging immediately after use but do not provide a shelf life for the charge.

I know if you leave it plugged in all the time it can end up ruining the battery. But if that is not the case then I would contact the manufacturer.

I leave mine plugged in and never had any issues. I think that is in the instructions simply because it is classified as portable appliance. My oven sits on the counter plugged in and ready to go. My husband uses the convection setting on this all the time ,it is very nice to have.

Don't worry. I used to leave it plugged in all week long (they recommend leaving it always plugged in) and even all winter long, without a problem.

This is a high voltage product, so I would not recommend leaving the plug laying outside. I have mine in my garage and I have my EV outside. I plug it in at night and close the door on the cord. In the morning, I roll the cord up and plug it back into the charger.

If you're asking if you can leave it plugged in then yes. I leave mine plugged into my tv. Plus I keep it plugged into the charger on tv so that it is always charged when tv is on. It doesn't over charge.

Yes, you can leave it connected all of the time. It'll automatically stop charging when the battery is full. But why would you want to? The charger is always converting 110v AC house current to 12v DC battery charging current. That produces heat and wastes electricity (aka $$$). I unplug mine when the light goes green meaning the battery is charged.

Best to turn it off then charge it....don't let battery drain totally. I often use it plugged in when it's fully charged.

I think so. I have left mine in the charger for several hours past full charge with no ill effects, but usually I remove the battery when the light turns green.

Just FYI, it doesn't damage your iPhone to leave it plugged in when it is full. It knows when the battery is full, and stops charging it. So no damage to battery.

I would NOT leave this on a charger. I believe that battery is meant to be run, up and down to maintain it's ability to accept a charge. Leaving it plugged in is not what it is meant to do.

We leave plugged in most of the time but it holds a charge indefinetly unplugged. I hope it helps.

From what I read in the instructions, it was safe to leave it on the charger continuously. However the blue light is supposed to go off every so often, which mine does. So far I've had no issues with storing it that way.

Ella, you can leave it plugged in in definitely. With that said, if your going out of town, or won't be using it for awhile, I would suggest unplugging it, just to be on the safe side. One more suggestion... I would use a surge protector at all times on any electrical devices such as this one. Please know, that I did not like mine and it did not work for my needs. I am still awaiting Amazon to pick it up and refund my account. That being said, if it works for you, and you like it, then by all means, keep it and use it. I hope this information helped helped you out? If I can be of further help, feel free to ask any questions. I'll help if I can. Thank you, $BILL Ella, you can leave it plugged in in definitely.

That's up to you. We leave ours plugged in all the time because that green light is so tiny. But if you want to unplug it just to be extra conscientious, it certainly can't hurt.
