Can this unit be plegged in to 110 power, in the charge mode, 24-7 with out doing damage by over charging it?

The instructions say "You cannot overcharge this unit using the AC charging method." However, elsewhere in the manual it says "overcharging will reduce battery life." But if you charge it DC you should not exceed 6 hours of charging time.

I'd not assume it's safe to leave it plugged in unless you see a statement saying that it is. In fact many manuals will say "Don't charge for more than 24 hours" or "Don't overcharge" showing that you shouldn't leave it on. If your thinking of that so it has a routine "fresh charge" that you don't need to think about doing regularly I'd get a timer that turns it on for just 15 minutes a day and/or a regulated power supply (like the Schumacher PC-6 or Coleman powerchill cooler AC supply) that won't "overcharge" it.

I guess so it can be done. The unit can be charged via regular power outlet and using computer (USB port)

110 Voltage to charge this but it doesn't need to be charged for quite a while!!

No, the battery cannot be overcharged. But I would not leave it on 'charge' indefinitely.

You can, this charger will maintain the battery and never overcharge or destroys the battery

I looked at my charger and it only list 120v on the bottom. I would say no you can not.

only if you use a 12v charge controller and have you batteries wired in series. the output of the panel under load is a bit over 24v.

If there is, it's by no means accessible to the average consumer. The clear answer is no.You can charge this through its micro usb port and then have it ready to power an electronic off the (full-size) usb slot when needed on the go. If it dies, you get a new one. If that's a concern then get a better, more expensive one.

One should leave the unit wired onto the batteries constantly. The unit does run on 110 volts. I plug the unit in when dockside and it keeps my batteries* charged automatically. *-I have the two battery model. Just wire it up and plug it in the keep batteries charged. when it is not being used (i.e. plugged into 110 volt) it doesn't allow back feed into charger from battery or other sources.

You can, it will not fry the batteries. It will only charge the batter if it needs charging.

Personally , I wouldn't recommend doing that .Follow the manufacturers manual on charging methods and you should get good service from the unit .

can be plugged into a standard 110 outlet, assuming the voltage of the charger to be 110

Not really it's going to be a waste of energy . I plugged it 2 hours before using it.

the battery charger does indeed operate off of 110-volt regular household current yes

I assume you're talking about over charging the battery when plugged into your 110VAC. The answer is yes, the built-in charging circuit will give a high bulk charge when you first plug it in. When the battery is about 95% charged it switches to a float charge which slowly brings the battery up to full cheveryonearge (about 13.5 VDC) it then switches to a trickle charge which continually charges the battery. If the voltage of the battery drops more than 1/2 a volt the charger turns on, when it reaches ful voltage it shuts off.

should be able to as long as you do not exceed the wattage rating(700 watts continuous) of the unit. I have not run a wattage rating on this unit and have only used it a couple of times for charging batteries and also powering an electric fan. I probably did not use over 200 watts max, so I was well below its limit.
