Should one leave the opener in the charger all of the time?

Guess you could, but I don't. You may not have a receptical near the opener or you might not like the looks of the cord being out all the time. The opener should open around 30 bottles between charges. This is an excellent wine opener!

I've had mine for over 2 years and I always leave it on the charger. Still works perfectly and can still pull out even the most stubborn corks with ease.

I don't because of counter space. It stays charged for many weeks once you fully charge it.

No. I leave mine plugged in all the time and i doesn't seem to damage anything. i've used my drill for over 8 years and it still works great!! I love it so much I bought a second drill. I lost my charger on a job site and ordered this charger to replace the lost one. Neither the drills or the chargers have worn out and my battery holds a charge a very long time. LOVE this product!!

Leaving the charger plugged into the wall is fine so long as the connector end is kept safe from water, pinching etc. You should not leave the device plugged in all the time as this is not so good for the battery. If you never plan to run the device on the battery, you are probably safe leaving it charge all the time.

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.

I leave mine on the charger all the time. I believe its better for battery life to run the battery down before rechargingso don't be afraid to use it...

This is a smart charger and as such it senses when to charge the battery and when not to with its built in circuitry. So yes, you could leave it hooked up to the battery indefinitely with no damage. Many people do this in the off season when a battery is sitting and not being used. Otherwise, you could be purchasing a new battery if it sits to long and discharges to the point that it can't recharge.

This is NOT normal. I have had several of thiSee openers. None did that! I am not buying any more. I think they are reconditioned

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.

It doesn't matter which means you use to connect the charger to the battery, whichever is most convenient for you, either the alligator clips or the eyelet connector for hard wiring to the vehicle. Once connected the charger automatically charges, then maintains the battery, so you can, and should, leave it hooked up until you want to use the vehicle again. Leaving the charger on the battery should extend the life of the battery.

I leave mine on the charger all the time with no problem. But then, I use these batteries everyday.

I purchased our can opener over 6 months ago. We have not needed to change the batteries yet. We probably average opening one can a day. Some days we open no cans and at thanksgiving we opened well over a dozen cans. My wife continues to love it and so do I. We have had two that were rechargeable, and they both had problems charging. Mostly because they were poorly designed in how they sat in their charging cradle. I prefer the battery model - I think most everyone would.

Leaving the battery in after it's charged won't harm the charger but, it can shorten the life of the battery. Batteries need to be cycled between a full charge and discharge for a long life. A few hours won't harm anything but, I wouldn't recommend leaving it on the charger when not in use.

I would recommend taking the case off - the further distance between the charger and the device, the less the amount of charge per unit of time.

I use mine all the time for work, so it is in the charger when I am not using it. It does not stay in the charger longer than a day or so at anytime.

It is better to leave the charger on . The batteries last longer if they are not drained Phillips Health care offers FREE 1 year warranty on the batteries BEYOND Invacare

Yes. I leave mine in all the time. Once you have it put together (very, very simple) you will really never need to open it. You can even charge it by using the outside terminals.
