So, how to use the phone charger safely?
■ Select products with qualified quality.
When buying mobile phone chargers and batteries, you must choose qualified products from regular manufacturers, and do not buy products with unqualified electrical performance produced by small factories. A good charger has an overheating self-protection circuit inside, and when its internal temperature reaches a certain value, it will automatically disconnect the power supply and play a certain degree of protection.
■ Try to charge when someone is watching.
The mobile phone battery should try to choose when someone is charging, so that it can handle abnormal situations in a timely manner. You should pay attention to the charger temperature and whether there is a burnt smell, if the temperature is too high, there is obvious hot hands or a burnt smell, etc., you should stop charging first, check the cause and carry out the necessary treatment before charging.
■ Avoid moisture or water ingress.
Before charging, check whether the battery and charger are damp or immersed, and if so, dry them or blow them dry with a hair dryer.
■ Isolated from flammables.
Do not place other flammable products near the charger when charging, and do not cover the soft fiber or cloth material on the charger that is being used.
■ Select a safe location to place the charger.
It is recommended to place the charger on a floor tile with no other combustible items within 1 meter of the surrounding area. Do not get too close to wooden wall skirts, and do not put them on furniture or wooden floors of wooden materials. It is best to use a socket with a fuse tube.
■ Unplug the power supply when not in use.
