Danger! Mobile phone chargers can actually cause fires!

Mobile phones, as a necessity that we cannot live without, have already penetrated into every aspect of our daily lives. As a "companion" of mobile phones, charging data cables have also become an indispensable part of our lives.

However, after using the mobile phone charging data cable for a long time, we will also encounter various problems, such as the outer skin of the charging data cable is damaged, poor contact during charging, etc. When the data cable has problems, some people are used to wrap it with tape and continue to use it. Little do they know that this actually hides safety hazards!

China Fire Department once released a video showing that charging a mobile phone with a broken charging data cable, from a small spark to a whole house burning in just 3 minutes. In addition, there are also great hidden dangers if the mobile phone charger is not unplugged.

On June 27, 2023, the Guizhou Fire Department received a call and handled a fire caused by a mobile phone charger that was forgotten to be unplugged when going to work that morning.

On April 17, 2023, a man in Zhoukou, Henan Province placed one end of the charging cable of his mobile phone on the bed. The charging cable suddenly caught fire and burned a hole in the bed sheet.

On April 13, 2023, a fire broke out in a private house in Jiangyong County, Yongzhou City, Hunan Province. The accident was caused by a mobile phone charger that was not unplugged in time.

Safety is of the utmost importance. A damaged charging cable is not only prone to short circuits and fire, but also very likely to cause leakage during charging when the metal of the charging cable is exposed.

If you play with your phone while charging, the current, human body and floor will easily form a closed circuit, which will cause great safety hazards. The editor also reminds everyone: **Be careful! Old charging data cables must be replaced! **So, how to determine whether the charging data cable needs to be replaced? The editor will teach you a few tricks!

1. Check the appearance for damage

If the surface rubber falls off and the inner wire is exposed, remember not to use this charging data cable anymore.

2. Check whether there is any poor contact during charging

When charging, observe whether there is a "no charge" situation. If you feel that the charging is intermittent or the power level does not change for a long time, you need to insert the charging port forcefully.

When it displays "Charging", such a charging data cable also needs to be replaced as soon as possible.

3. Check whether the charging port is overheated

If overheating occurs at the terminal charging interface, charging plug, mobile phone battery area, etc. during charging, it is best to replace the charging data cable in time.

The safety risks of using old and damaged charging data cables are far more than these. Long-term use may also damage the internal structure of the mobile phone, shorten the life of the mobile phone, and reduce the corrosion resistance of the terminal interface. In serious cases, the charging data cable can directly burn the interface. Another point to note is that even if the data cable is successfully repaired according to the online tutorial, these safety risks will still exist.

Therefore, it is very important to choose a regular and suitable charging data cable. How to choose?

You need to consider the appearance, the reaction speed of the phone during charging, and the success rate of charging comprehensively. Remember! When replacing the charging data cable of your mobile phone, don't just look for cheap ones! It is best to use the charging data cable that comes with the mobile phone! When you need multiple charging data cables, you must also choose high-quality products that meet the standards and are professionally certified!

Finally, the editor reminds everyone again: mobile phone charging is not a trivial matter! Be sure to choose an appropriate charging data cable that meets safety standards! In addition, it is best not to charge in an overheated or overcold environment, beside the bed or pillow, and it is also best not to play with the phone while charging~ Prevent hidden dangers and ensure safety .
