Question
Will it hurt the device (cell phone,gps,nitendo ds) if they stay connected to power after they are fully charged ?
Most devices won't overcharge, so keeping it on the charger when it's fully charged won't hurt the device. Check your manual to be certain, but for the most part, this is accurate. For example, a BlackBerry will just stop charging once it is fully charged, even if you leave it on the charger. Same with an iPhone.
