Will storing the device in the charging box while turned on damage it? Mom has problem with on/off switch so leaves it on.

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.

I've done it a couple of times with no effect other than it takes a little longer to fully charge. However if volume is all the way down it reacts like it's off.

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.

Yes, I leave mine off until I get down to about 20-30% power on until recharged to 100%. I'll turn it back off and I can do that 2-3 times per case charge, unless I forget to turn it back off when recharging the phone. Be aware that it does get warm to the touch when charging the phone, not too hot but you know it's on. Also make sure your lighting plug port is clean as if it traps dirt or anything it can scratch the connections and cause issues with the phone. Otherwise highly recommended.

The off/on switch is on the thin edge of the device left side (not underside). It's near the charging plug in

No u need to place it directly on the charging pad for it to charge. U can leave the bad on all the time if u want it goes in the fone case near the battery

Do not leave it connected to the charger when you are not using it. If that is not it then contact Stanley..........

Thank you for contacting Battery World. When charging via USB or via Sunlight, you should keep the Charger's Switch in the OFF position. If you were to keep it ON you would be draining the charger of any power that it has stored up. When charging a mobile/digital device is when you would turn the switch to the ON position.

I havent tried to be honest. The longest so far is couple of days, but i havent lost anything out of it so far. I think if u keep it for a month u might lose just a bar of its light indicator which could account for 2 to 5% of its overall due to its internal connections lost. Which is nornal for these kind of devices. But i normally keep it on the charge when i am not using it at home.

I let mine charge for several days, and it still never came on. Then I charged it for several more (with switch in off position), never worked.

Not always, would burn it up. I do leave it plugged up sometimes when I use it if power gets low with no problem.

Did you turn it on before you tried to charge it? There is an on off switch that will stay on once you have it charged.

I leave on charging station all the time since it shuts itself down when fully charged. Does not affect the battery if I remember correctly.

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.

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 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.

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

Not that I have found. We keep ours plugged into the charger, just a blue light that it's charged and have not had a problem with over charging.
