Charging question

[BatFanBob]

I am using a RIVA 901...does it harm the battery in any way to leave it hooked up in the charger for minutes to hours past the point when the grren "charged" light come on? I forget about it and sometimes it may be a couple hours or more past the "fully charged" stage.....Thanks

It shouldn't harm it in anyway.
I leave my eGo batts charging overnight and all of them are alive and well.

If the charger is doing what it is supposed to be doing, No, it doesn't hurt the battery.

But if for any reason the charger doesn't taper off and then stop charging the battery like it should, then Yes it will effect the battery.

I wouldn't leave Any battery in a charger after the light indicates it is fully charged. But if you occasionaly forget about it I wouldn't freak out either.
