The chargers never stop drawing electricity, which is why you get "phantom charging" when you leave certain electronics plugged into your power strip throughout the day. Even if your phone requires you to add a little more electricity to charge it up once the battery's been drained, the electricity it asks for is nothing compared to the amount that's been seeping through your charger, going nowhere, for the rest of the day/three days (depending on how good your phone's battery is).
