Is it bad to leave rechargeable batteries constantly charging?


Like for a digital camera.

The good chargers turn off after the battery is charged. Over charging batteries can cause the to heat up to temperatures that can not only damage the battery, but in some cases cause fires.

It is ALWAYS recommended that Li-ion batteries and charger be the ones made buy the manufacturer of your camera. There are many reasons for this, two of which have to do with the built-in safe-guards and battery conditioning circuitry which not only protects the the battery , but insures it lasts for a long time (I have some Nikon Li-ion batteries that are over 5 years old and are still performing as if they were new)

depends on the chemical. for NiMH, NiCd, yes. for Li-ion, technically no because it's the heat that kills, not the charge

yes,it may cause the battery to lose it's ability to keep charge.it's better to charge li ion batteries when they are completely empty and unplug them as soon as battery full sign appears.
