In this era when mobile phones do not leave our hands, charging mobile phones is already our common thing, and chargers have naturally become a consumable. Although a mobile phone is no problem to use for three or four years, in daily use, the charging head and charging cable are easy to "strike" in advance.
Sometimes, the charger we have on hand has aged and broken, but it has not been shown in the short term, and many people will continue to use it. In fact, such an approach has great security implications. If you are not careful, you may cause disaster!
Therefore, we should pay special attention to the fact that if we find that there are several phenomena in the charging head and charging cable, then we must be prepared for a new one.
1, charging often off the charge
Many small partners have encountered the situation that the mobile phone charging is intermittent, and it cannot be charged for a while, if this situation occurs many times, it is necessary to pay special attention.
On the one hand, it is possible that the contacts of the data line interface are oxidized or the insulation between the contacts is problematic, resulting in poor contact. On the other hand, it is possible that the plug of the charging head or the internal components are damaged. In addition, it is also possible that the mobile phone interface is faulty.
Knowing what the problem is, we can use substitutions to troubleshoot.
First replace a charging head to try, note that the charging head should match the charging protocol supported by the mobile phone, if it can be charged normally, it is the problem of the charging head. Otherwise, replace the data cable and try again to see if it will be broken.
If it is confirmed that there is a problem with the charging head or data cable, it must be replaced in time, otherwise it will not be conducive to the maintenance of the battery life of the mobile phone.
If it is still not possible to replace the charging head and data cable, then see if there is dust accumulation on the mobile phone interface, dust will also cause poor contact, and you can use the needle to clean out the dust debris inside.
2. Overheating at the charging head or interface
We know that during charging, it is normal for the charger to heat up slightly, but if the heat is serious, it is not normal.
Therefore, the charging process should be paid attention to. If the data cable body is overheated, it may be that the flame retardant ability of the outer layer of the core material is too poor; if it is overheated at the interface, it is likely that the insulation between its contacts is a problem. In this case, it is recommended to change the data cable.
If the charging head touches the hot hand, replace a charging head to try it, especially for small partners who use non-original charging heads.
Nowadays, many users use third-party charging products. It's not that third-party products aren't as good as the original, but because the digital products on the market are mixed, there are always some products that have buried security risks due to cutting corners or design defects.
In order to prevent the purchase of inferior equipment, it is recommended that you choose a large brand and a product that has passed safety certification, and the safety is more secure.
3. The appearance is damaged
The rupture of the outer skin of the data line is already a very common phenomenon, after all, the outer quilt of many data lines is TPE material, which is "ravaged" by us many times a day, and wear is inevitable.
In view of the phenomenon of rotten data lines, many small partners are not very concerned. And many times, as long as it can still be charged, we will continue to use it.
In fact, this practice is wrong. Because the data cable loses the outer skin protection, the exposed metal core inside will gradually be worn and corroded. Over time, it is easy to cause the charging process to heat up due to the decrease in flame retardancy capacity, and even cause spontaneous combustion accidents!
Therefore, if you find that the data line has broken the skin, you must consider replacing it with a new line.
Seeing this, many Apple users may express their difficulty in accepting, after all, the price of an original Apple line is more than one hundred yuan. In this regard, the professor's suggestion is: you can choose to weave a third-party brand data cable of the material, but only if it is certified by Apple's official MFi.
For example, the "energy rainbow" woven data cable certified by GreenLink through Apple MFi, the inner layer is made of soft and highly elastic liquid silicone material, and the outer layer is blessed with a cross-type tightly woven two-color nylon material, which greatly improves the wear resistance compared with the ordinary data line, and can solve the problems of skin fracture, bending and deformation in daily use.
In addition, pay attention to operational problems. When unplugging the charging cable, do not pull the cable body arbitrarily, which can easily lead to damage to the cable. The correct way is to hold the thread and plug it in, not too hard.
If you use a data cable of ordinary materials, it is best not to put it together with sharp objects, otherwise it is easy to scratch the outer skin
How often do you change your charger and charging cable?
