Is it OK to leave the flashlight and battery in the charger all the time and just take it out when you use it?

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.

You should never leave a battery in a charger unattended. There is always a slim chance of a battery or charger going bad, violently.

It holds a charge for 8-9 days if not used, we leave ours between the car front seats for protection or in the house on the counter. We don't use it as a flashlight. Therefore length of charge depends on use. Yes, you can leave it in the charger for long periods

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.

You can leave them in without causing any damage since the charging current is stopped once he green light goes out. This is a handy feature for those of us that like to start eneloop pro cells charging on several of these chargers before going to bed. No need to babysit these eneloop batteries or chargers, when you see they're done feel free to take them out, but they can indeed be left in if you're not at home or sleeping when they finish charging.

You shouldn't need to, it is rechargable and comes with a charger for the hand held part.

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.

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. The piggyback charger which means you can charge the flashlight and the spare battery at once. Also comes with car or home adapter. I love the light. Great price for the stuff you get.

I am not sure about this, but for the safe side remove the batteries from the charger any batteries not only the these batteries in case of over charge and damaged your batteries.

Overnight and then I leave it in the charger all the time except for when I'm using it. You can't overcharge it.

The charger SHOULD turn off or provide a low level trickle charge, so leaving the batteries in the charger should not be a problem. BUT, most of the chargers I have purchased over the years had "fine print" in the directions not to leave the batteries in the charger for more than 24 hours. Why? I don't know, but I make it a practice to remove the batteries after no more than 12 hours.

The flashlight part of it charges right along with the charger itself. I love mine!!

That is correct. Flashlight holds one one battery, the other can be on charge. Also both batteries can be placed in charger at the same time to be charged. The flashlight is really bright.

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.

I put in duracell AA battery in when I got it. It's still in there. I use the flashlight everyday ...4 times a day lighting up dark rooms a few minutes at a time.

Yes...you remove the battery and recharge it in the charger. I've had mine sitting on the nightstand for about two months now and it still appears to be charged so unless you use it a lot, you shouldn't have to charge it very often. This is a great flashlight...I need to buy another one for the car.
