Leaving a charger plugged in when idle: risks and dangers

The world is increasingly dependent on electronic devices such as cell phones, laptops and tablets.

To power these devices, we often use chargers that remain plugged in at all times, even when they are not being used to charge a device.

However, there are risks associated with leaving a charger plugged in while idle, and it is important to consider these risks to ensure the safety and durability of these devices.
