How do you charge your batterty?
If users want to prolong the battery’s effective use of time, in addition to the quality of the charger should be guaranteed, the right skills is also essential to the charge, because the poor quality of the charger or charging the wrong methods will affect battery life and cycle life The following is the 14 charging tips you shoud know:
1. Before the battery taken out from factory, manufacturers have carried out active treatment, and conduct a pre-charging, so the batteries have some extra electricity, a friend said that the battery charge in accordance with the time period of adjustment, standby is still a serious shortage, if the battery is indeed the genuine battery, then in this case, adjustment period should be extended a further 3 to 5 times fully charge and discharge.
2. If you buy a new cell phone is a lithium-ion, then the first 3 to 5 times charge commonly referred to as an adjustment period, it should be charged more than 14 hours to ensure the full cell phone activation of lithium-ion activity. Lithium-ion battery have no memory effect, but have a strong inertness, should be given to fully activated in order to guarantee that the future using can achieve the best performance.
3. For some automated intelligent rapid charger, when the lights change direction, only means it is full of 90%. Charger will automatically change with the slow charging until the battery is full. It’s best to use it after the battery is full, otherwise it will shorten the usage time.
4. Before charging, lithium batteries do not need special discharge; battery will be damaged of improper discharge. As far as possible, charging should using slow charge mode, reducing the fast charge mode; time should not exceed 24 hours. After three to five times the battery fully charge and discharge cycles, its internal chemicals will all be activated to achieve best results.
5. Please use the original or the good reputation brand of chargers, lithium batteries use dedicated lithium battery charger, and follow the instructions, otherwise it will damage the battery or even dangerous.
6. There are many users’ batteries in charge but the phone still open; in fact, it will hurt the mobile phone life very easily, because in the charging process, the cell phone circuit boards be fever, at this time if there are external phone, it may create an instant return current, damage on the phone’s internal parts.
7. The battery life determined by the number of repeated charge and discharge, it should try to avoid extra battery power when charging; it will shorten the battery life. Phone power off for more than 7 days, the mobile phone battery should be fully discharged, charging adequate electricity and then use.
8. Mobile phone battery exists self-discharge, when not using, the nickel-metal hydride batteries will discharge about 1% of the remaining capacity in a day, lithium batteries will discharge about 0.2% ~ 0.3% in a day. In charging the battery, try to use a dedicated outlet; do not share household electrical appliances such as TV with the charger in the same socket.
9. Although the mobile phone within the network coverage region, but when the phone power off and are charging, the phone can not receive and dial a call. At this point, you can use the phone’s not connected transfer functions, transferred the cell phone to the phone aside in order to prevent loss of calls, this method is also can be use for the mobile phone non network coverage or in weak signal area that temporarily unable to connect.
10. Do not expose the battery in hot or cold, like a dog day, do not put the phone on the car to withstand the scorching sun exposure; or get it to the air-conditioned room, on the air conditioning blowing straight places. When charging, the battery has a little heat is normal, but can not be under high temperature. To avoid this condition happen, it is best charge at the room temperature, and do not cover anything on the phone.
11. Before Nickel-cadmium (N iCd) charging, it must ensure that the battery completely without electricity, and then charge must ensure that the battery fully charged.
12. If the mobile phone battery place too long without use, it is best to bring the phone to the maintenance department to activate the batteries, you can use a constant voltage DC device, adjusting the voltage of 5 ~ 6V, current at 500 ~ 600mA reverse connect the battery. Pay attention that the liberalization of touch, repeat three times at most, after such treatment, use original charger to carry out adjustment charge.
13. It is not good for the battery charging for too long, for battery of not protecting the circuit, charge should be stopped immediately when it is full, and otherwise the battery’s performance will be impacted due to the heat or overheating.
14. Lithium-ion battery must select dedicated charger, or they might not reach saturation, impact on its performance. After charging, the battery should avoid placing more than 12 hours or more on the charger, separate battery and cell phone when not for a long time.
With these tips,you don’t have to worry about the battery life because of the wrong way.
