“Does it shorten the battery life to put the remote on the charger unit before the indicator turns red? Will it cause the battery to not hold a charge as long if it is placed on the charger before the indicator turns red?”

No. You're thinking of older-style batteries that had "memory" issues. Newer ones like the ones in this remote don't and therefore I always put mine back in the charger after use. This is my third Logitech Harmony remote in 20 years and with each one the batteries have kept their performance for the useful life of the remote. I used the first one for 12 years and never experienced any battery issues.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hey there! The Harmony Elite remote contains a lithium-ion battery, essentially the same as you will find in today's smartphones and tablets. Li-ion battery life and lifetime are usually unaffected to any great degree when they are continuously connected to a charger, nor do they display a "memory effect" like NiCads.
