    Most new phones now have built-in battery management systems to help you out. If you head to the “battery charging and health” section of your iPhone, for example, you’ll see the option to ...

  3. Battery charger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_charger

    For example, for a battery with a capacity of 500 mAh, a discharge rate of 5000 mA (i.e., 5 A) corresponds to a C-rate of 10C, meaning that such a current can discharge 10 such batteries in one hour. Likewise, for the same battery a charge current of 250 mA corresponds to a C-rate of C/2, meaning that this current will increase the state of ...

  4. Self-discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-discharge

    Self-discharge is a phenomenon in batteries. Self-discharge decreases the shelf life of batteries and causes them to have less than a full charge when actually put to use. [1] How fast self-discharge in a battery occurs is dependent on the type of battery, state of charge, charging current, ambient temperature and other factors. [2]

  5. Trickle charging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trickle_charging

    Trickle charging is the process of charging a fully charged battery at a rate equal to its self-discharge rate, enabling the battery to remain at its fully charged level. This state occurs almost exclusively when the battery is not loaded, as trickle charging will not keep a battery charged if current is being drawn by a load.

    When your phone is emitting a signal or looking for a signal (and not finding one), it's using extra battery. And lastly, tip No. 5: Your phone has a low power mode, so use it.

  7. Inductive charging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_charging

    Power is transmitted to the vehicle through resonance between the magnetic pad at the bottom of the charging space and the magnetic pad at the bottom of the vehicle. The transmitted power is stored in the battery through a converter in the vehicle system. It was applied on a trial basis at Genesis Motor EV charging station located in South ...

  8. Quick Charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quick_Charge

    Quick Charge is a proprietary technology that can charge battery-powered devices, primarily mobile phones, at power levels exceeding the 7.5 watts (5 volts at 1.5 amps) supported by the USB BC 1.2 standard, using existing USB cables. The higher voltage available allows more power (watts) to be supplied through wires without excessive heating.

  9. Charge controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_controller

    A charge controller, charge regulator or battery regulator limits the rate at which electric current is added to or drawn from electric batteries to protect against electrical overload, overcharging, and may protect against overvoltage. [1] [2] This prevents conditions that reduce battery performance or lifespan and may pose a safety risk. It ...
