I have the Verizon LG 510.

My question is this: Can I leave my charger plugged in?

I have the Verizon LG 510. My question is this: Is it ok to the leave the charger plugged in (without the phone being charged). I have heard that the charger still pulls power even if the phone is not being charged and I would like to keep my power bill as low as possible (just lost my job). Also I have heard some people say that leaving a charger plugged in without a phone being charged can be a fire hazard. Any help/advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Rich

Leaving your charger plugged in when you are not charging the phone is no more of a problem than leaving your lamp plugged in with it switched off. I leave mine plugged in all the time. In fact, We have 2 chargers in the bedroom (1 for my 120e, 1 for my wifes 120c) and 1 in the den for each phone. Anytime I buy a new phone I leave the charger plugged in so I can just pop it on the charger at night when it needs it and not have to worry about plugging it in to charge it, or worse yet, forgetting to plug it in to the wall when you try to charge it.

YES you can leave it in it wont draw any power and it is most certanily not a fire hazard my father is an electric contractor and it is ok trust me i would hear abt it always trying to save power and the charger is fine it has no draw unless it is plugged in on your phone
