[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 3929909, member: 3099"] There's something to this. I have a Kobalt 40V lawnmower and matching blower. The manual says you can leave the battery in the charger but not to leave the charger plugged in. So I don't. ETA: The oldest battery is going on 5 years and still holding charge well. I'm pretty sure my old Rigid 18V and new Milwaukee 12V says it's OK to leave on the charger. I'll have to check but I normally don't leave them that way much more than overnight maybe. With lithium ion batteries it's also best to not store them (when unused) in extreme temps either way. I keep mine in the house. [/QUOTE]
