Not considered a good idea to leave charging unattended. On rare ocassions it could overheat and cause problems.

If you leave it overnight make sure it is on a fireproof surface and away from combustible materials.

Charging unattended isn't a good idea.

Charging a battery via the usb of the mod should be ok - the current should stop or change to a trickle once the cell is charged. However - do you really want to trust a 25c circuit board in a Chinese cheaply produced mod ?
I would strongly suggest - based on my experience of many mass produced vaping products - that you do not leave a mod 'plugged in' overnight. I have had several devices go wrong over the last few years, one of them auto-firing. The potential for a mis-hap is relatively high...Some people may even say 'especially a mod made by Smok'.

TLDR; No.

Integrated battery so really no choice but to charge in mod

I wouldn't leave it overnight personally. I have batteries in a charger and I don't trust those in a charger overnight. If you can afford it buy another device so you always have one charged if you haven't done that already.

Can't find the thread or video from a few months ago, but there was a Smok Stick that ignited while charging, everyone was napping at the time....

Always keep an eye on charging devices or batteries.

Any li-ion battery can start a fire if the charger goes bad. Laptops, tablets, cell phones, power tools, model airplane packs, etc. I don't leave any of them on charge overnight or if I'm not in the house. It doesn't happen often, but it's just not worth the risk to me.

Most mods nowadays have a fast charge. So, I just have at least 2 mods-1 on the charger during the day. Sometimes I plug in while watching tv or playing on the pc. I vape low enuf that vaping-while-charging works fine.
