Some tips about the right way to charge your phone

Some tips about the right way to charge your phone

1. Letting your phone go to 0% charge and then recharging it to 100%. It is definitely not a good option. If you do so you can damage the inside materials of the battery and can cause battery corrosion.


2. A fast charge can reduce your battery life. It generates more heat than the normal charge which is bad for the battery. It consumes more battery than it gives to your phone.


3. Using Random chargers -  It's not true that all the charges are the same. The best thing you could do to your phone is to provide it with the original charger. Other chargers may have different potentials that can damage your phone and also they don't include any protection from power surges.


4. Charging your phone in cafes or other public places.

You never know whether the plug is faulted or even the voltage is right. Also if you are using USB someone may steal your data.


5. Power banks are much safer than any public place. Just make sure that Ampere is right. Most power banks have a range of 2.1A to 2.4A which is totally okay!!


6. Check if the phone is not too hot while charging. The hotter the battery the less effective charger is.


7. Charging the phone overnight - This is something almost everyone does. It may seem ok. If you have a smart charger that stops charging as soon as the phone reaches 100% but as soon as your phone downs to even 99% your charger will start charging it. It's pretty dangerous. Most fires take place at night and a faulty charger may be the reason for that.


8. Using your phone while it is charging - This was you can confuse the battery. Your phone is going to get some charge and then the app you are using will drain the energy and then it charges again. these cycles tire the battery and shorten its life span. You should turn your phone off while charging, and if that is not possible at least leave it alone for some time.


9. Leaving the phone cover on while charging - The cover traps up the heat making the charging way less effective.

You should not leave the phone under the pillow for the same reason. If you are not lucky it can even catch fire.If you can't sleep without your phone Turn on the Airplane mode and bring your screen brightness to a minimum.


10. Temperature is important too! Do not expose your phone to direct sun rays because overheating eats upcharge. 


11. Using the charger during a thunderstorm - Even though electrical appliances are designed for your safety still there is a chance of fire. If you really need to charge opt for a power bank. 


12. Charging your phone with a laptop - The problem with this way of charging is of current differences. They may ask for less current not to damage the computer. A low current charge damages the battery.
