Do you need to keep the battery plugged in while not in use?

I have 2 batteries for my trimmer. I charge them both up and unplug them from the charger. You do not need to leave it plugged in. When the green light goes out they are ready to use.

When the light goes out on the charger, the battery is fully charged then take the battery off the charger. The battery will stay charged for a long time.

No. I charged it once and have used it 5-10 times since without another charge.

It is always recommended to keep rechargeable batteries on charge when not in use. Otherwise you may find shorter battery life.

I re-charge until the green light goes off. This is only when I know I'm going to need it soon. Obviously if it will be weeks or months before needing it, I don't re-charge.

You need to plug the battery in the day before you want to use it to give it time to charge up.

No, I just charge it after I use it and let it sit until I use it again. Seems to work for me.

Does not have a battery. You can leave it plugged in all the time if you wish.

No, you don't need to plug it in, it comes with a battery, that is how the light is on.

No. And for safety reasons, I wouldn't recommend doing either leaving it on constantly, or running it when not at home.

No need to turn off when not in use. Battery will last a few weeks at full day use.

I would say not necessary, it's your choice. It stays charged even when its not in use.

According to my wife the answer is no, it must be plugged in. She loves it though.

I don't know - I keep mine plugged in all the time and do not use the battery.

You can leave it unplugged but the battery last 3 or 4 hour, after that it needs to be plugged so it can charge.

No. It needs to be plugged in since there is no battery pack on the controller.

Yes, you leave it plugged in all the time. I have had the unit for four months and it has been working fine. I have not had a problem with my car battery since I installed it. Hope you have the same results.

Yes. Just make sure that you keep the battery on a charger when not in use.

No but take care when inserting and taking the battery out- it's best to plug in the charger after placement of the battery.

No its better to leave it in so it will be ready to roll when unfolded. You never need to unplug the battery.
