Why you can’t leave charging socket?
Have you wondered why it is desirable to unplug the charger from the socket? Did you know what a long idle charging in the network can be fraught with?
1. Power Consumption
The charger connected to a wall outlet consumes power, albeit in small amounts. Of course, a device left on the network will increase the electricity bill not by a thousand rubles, but only by a couple of kopecks.
2. Safety
Manufacturers write in the instructions that it is advisable to unplug the charger from the outlet in order to avoid fire. The probability of ignition of the charger is extremely small, but if the charge is of poor quality, then the chance of a malfunction increases.
Significant overheating is a sign of a malfunction.
3. Power surges
Imagine that the lights in the house were turned off, and then turned on. The standard mains voltage is 220V, and a voltage surge up to 300V can damage the charger.
There is also a golden rule: Do not charge the device during a thunderstorm. A lightning strike can damage not only the charger, but also the phone.
