How to use lithium battery charger correctly

Many people still have such a misunderstanding about the use of lithium battery chargers, that is, "deep in and out and shallow in and out of shallow have a huge impact on the life of the charger. Scientific research shows that the life of lithium batteries has Nearly 500 cycles, so when we use the charger to charge more power, the charger itself will not have too much damage. In other words, the charger does not have much relationship with the number of charges. Other factors such as Shallow charge and shallow charge do not have a negative impact on the charger.

We can even say that shallow charge and shallow charge are of great benefit to the lithium battery charger, because the charger as a component of the receiving circuit, excessive and prolonged use will make it accelerate aging, just like a young and powerful As young people climb up to several thousand kilometers of mountains, they have to rest for a while on the way. Therefore, we can use the number of lithium battery chargers more casually, but pay special attention to the length of use.

Generally speaking, the specific steps for using the lithium battery charger during charging are very simple. I will not go into details here, just plug in the ordinary battery charger and check the power instructions.

Difference between lithium battery charger and adapter

Lithium battery charger usually refers to a device that converts alternating current into low-voltage direct current. It includes a control circuit that meets charging characteristics such as current limiting and voltage limiting. Lithium battery chargers are widely used in various fields, especially in the field of life are widely used in mobile phones, cameras and other common electrical appliances.

Lithium battery chargers are widely used in various fields, especially in the field of life are widely used in electric vehicles, flashlights, new energy vehicles and UPS power supplies and other common electrical appliances. It generally charges the Li battery directly without any intermediary equipment and devices.

Power adapters The common power adapters on the market are power converters with transformer, rectification and voltage regulation. The output is DC, which can be understood as a low-voltage stabilized power supply when the power is met. It is widely used in equipment such as telephone handsets, game consoles, language repeaters, walkmans, notebooks, and cellular phones.

Power adapters are widely used in routers, phone handsets, game consoles, language repeaters, walkmans, notebooks, mobile phones and other devices. Most power adapters can automatically detect 100-240V AC (50 / 60Hz).

Lithium battery chargers should have current and voltage control functions that are compatible with battery charging. They can be fully charged and then float and then turn off. The adapter usually only provides a DC power supply of about 5V and hundreds of mA, and it can be charged only with a charging control circuit (such as a mobile phone).

Lithium battery charger includes the function of an adapter, but there are constant current and constant voltage control circuits inside the charger that meet the charging characteristics. The charging control circuit of the adapter is generally completed on the host. For example, the lithium battery charger and the laptop computer charger are actually just power adapters, which do not include the charging control circuit, and the charging control is done inside the computer.

The difference between lithium battery charger and power adapter is as follows:

The biggest difference between the charger and the adapter is that the charger only charges the battery, and the adapter can not only charge the battery, but also supply power to the host;

The lithium battery charger includes the power adapter function, because it has one more control circuit than the adapter. For example, the mobile phone charger includes three stages of constant current, constant voltage, and trickle charge. While the charging control of the laptop is in the computer body, the adapter only plays a role of voltage stabilization, without the constant current and voltage limiting design of the above charger.

Lithium battery chargers have current and voltage control functions that are compatible with battery charging. They can be fully charged and then floated and then turned off.

The adapter usually only provides a DC power supply of about 5V and hundreds of mA, and it can be charged only with a charging control circuit (such as a mobile phone).
