I have a four-wheel scooter powered by a 24 volt battery. The user manual is adamant about not (dis)connecting a device while power is available to the charging cable. I can only assume that this is because something electrical could cause a spark, or maybe "irritate" the connection in some damaging way.
I'm wondering if this same concern applies to mobile devices and laptops? Do we have to be cautious; i.e., plug the cable into the device before plugging into the wall when connecting, and unplugging from the wall before unplugging the device when disconnecting?
