Can the car charger be left plugged in the car all the time?

Car chargers can be left plugged in the car. Currently, most car chargers on the market have built-in overload protection mechanisms, which prevent damage to the charger. Additionally, the cigarette lighter socket does not supply power when the car is turned off, so it won’t drain the battery. However, for better car maintenance, it is recommended to unplug the charger when not in use. A car charger uses the cigarette lighter socket as a power source to charge mobile devices directly. Since the voltage provided by the car is relatively low, the charger only requires an overload protection circuit internally. The front end of the car charger socket is equipped with a fuse, which instantly blows when the current exceeds the safe range of the overload protection circuit, thereby providing protection.
