When not vaping my e-cig, is it ok to leave it on the charger?

Definitely don't trust that $2 charger.
Last ecig issue I saw on the local news was an njoy exploding because it was left charging unattended last year.

Best to leave them off charger very slightly discharged when not being used(80%ish). I usually just leave them off at 100%, but never leave on charger, as there is usually a trickle charge that holds them at 100% which can be detrimental. I always charge before 50% though, which is also good for your batts. Have some very old ones that still work great

It is strongly recommended to not leave PV batteries sitting on chargers, unattended.

Although rare, bad things do happen, chargers and/or battery built-in protections fail.

Some of us use charging bags, others use an outlet timer, to provide a safer environment for unattended charging.

Again, what he said. ^^^ It's not a matter of the possible loss of a battery because you forgot about it. No biggie... It is about an unexpected protection failure. Then you're talking about significant property loss or worse. Be safe.

Mehhhh, I don't have time to monitor batteries charging lol. I just plug them in and go on my merry way. If they lose charge because they stay on after they are charged, so be it. Will just buy another. I usually get a new PV every 6 months or so anyways. So if I have been diminishing my batteries, I haven't noticed since I have since moved onto other PVs.

Batteries are cheap.
That's not the real issue here....

My time is not cheap. You owe me $10.32 for this response.

So, one recommends storing batteries at 40% and another at 80%. I'll just shoot for 60% then .

did your kit come with the v4l slim charger? i use one overnight with my dial a volt all the time and haven't had a problem

and just a word to the wise, v4l makes a great (albeit pricey) product but their juice is just rebranded chinese dekang juice you could get far cheaper elsewhere.

I hope you're right!!...does Dekang sell a 555 type liquid, I don't see it on fasttech.com? Btw, how do you know, did you compare the juices yourself? Thanks.
