Hello, just want to ask if its ok to just keep this plugged in the pc all the time?

Yes, but it will break off if it hits something so I take it off when I travel

Don't worry. I used to leave it plugged in all week long (they recommend leaving it always plugged in) and even all winter long, without a problem.

Not. It does not have that function. I haves to be plugged all the time. that is one disadvantage that this computer haves but It works pretty well, very contemporary design.

I'd not assume it's safe to leave it plugged in unless you see a statement saying that it is. In fact many manuals will say "Don't charge for more than 24 hours" or "Don't overcharge" showing that you shouldn't leave it on. If your thinking of that so it has a routine "fresh charge" that you don't need to think about doing regularly I'd get a timer that turns it on for just 15 minutes a day and/or a regulated power supply (like the Schumacher PC-6 or Coleman powerchill cooler AC supply) that won't "overcharge" it.

The cooler can be kept on still if you want, especially if the laptop is overheated. Otherwise if you aren't using your laptop, it's good to at least turn off the cooler. I kept mine plugged in to my laptop 24/7 but would turn it off when I left it.

Even though a computer may be powered down power is still being pushed through it. I suspect that because its powered by USB that it does that. However I could be wrong.

I use a powered usb hub. So I can plug many things into the hub and it has it's own power pack. Then I don't overload the onboard power from the pc.

You just plug it into the electrical outlet & the other end into the computer. If you are not moving the laptop keep it plugged in...Wont hurt...

I don't think it really has to be powered constantly, it is just a recommendation so it doesn't have to reboot every time it gets turned back on. So you can turn it off if you want, there is nothing that says you have to leave it on.

That's up to you. We leave ours plugged in all the time because that green light is so tiny. But if you want to unplug it just to be extra conscientious, it certainly can't hurt.

I leave mine plugged in at all times. I have two right now that are always plugged in.

You can charge it by plugging it into your pc, but I like to have that in case I am away from my pc. So I did need it.

yes, this is exactly what this does. Split the power. (I am also assuming your psu is enough to handle all of the device loads.)

I keep the out door unit plug in all the time, the 2 monitors I charge when needed when red light go off I just unplug, leaving it plug in do not seem to have any problems.

No I do not but I do keep it plugged into a surge protector. So far, so good.

No problem with mine. I only use it with a power supply, and it works perfectly.
