Will the Motorola Cigarette Lighter Adapter for Motorola Phones charge my phone while the car is turned off?”
If your car is off and you plug in the charger and the light of the charger goes on, then you know you can charge a phone when the car is off. Since this plug in uses your car’s battery, if you left a phone plugged into the charger with the car off for an extended period of time – just like leaving your lights on – it would eventually drain your car’s battery. It’s not a good idea to do this. If your car is on and your phone is plugged into the charger, it’s just like anything else, i.e., your lights or radio or air conditioner, etc., they are all using your car’s battery. However, this is not detrimental. So, just as you wouldn’t leave your lights on when the car is off, don’t leave a cell phone charger plugged in and charging a phone if your car is one that charges a phone even if the car is not on. http://en.allexperts.com/q/Cellular-Phones-2768/2008/4/car-chargers-cell-phone
