<h3>What can happen if you leave the charger plugged in?</h3>
There is a component inside the charger that continues to consume electricity even when in standby mode. Although the power consumption is small, it still occurs.

Leaving the charger plugged in all the time will cause it to overheat, which can accelerate the wear of its internal components, such as capacitors.
When there is a sudden voltage drop, the charger connected to the network may overheat and start smoking, which in some cases leads to a fire.
It is also important to remember about safety in the home, especially if there are small children or pets. A charger in a socket with a cord connected to it can be a source of electric shock hazard.
