Image
  By Pankaj Mirchandani – A phone’s battery life is a critical aspect of its performance, especially in today’s mobile-reliant world. With regular use, a phone’s battery can quickly drain, leaving users frustrated. Here are ten tips to maximize your phone’s battery life and extend its lifespan. The first step is to use the right charger for your phone. Using the wrong charger can lead to slower charging times, overheating, and even battery damage. Always use the charger that came with your phone or a reliable third-party charger with correct specifications and certification. Tips To Expand The Lifespan Of Your Phone Battery Avoid charging your phone overnight, as this can lead to overcharging and damage your battery’s capacity. It is better to charge your phone periodically throughout the day instead of waiting until it reaches a low battery level. Charging your phone to 100% can cause stress on the battery and reduce its lifespan. Try to unplug your phone ...

Why Watt-Hours (Wh) Are Important When Buying A Power Bank

Image
  By Pankaj Mirchandani – Watt-hours, often abbreviated as Wh, are a measure of energy capacity in a power bank. They indicate how much energy a power bank can store and subsequently deliver to charge devices such as smartphones, tablets, and even laptops. The higher the watt-hours, the more energy the power bank can store and the more charges it can provide to your devices. Significance of Watt-Hours in a Power Bank When choosing a power bank, it’s essential to consider the watt-hours it offers. A high-capacity power bank with a large watt-hour rating will be able to charge your device multiple times before needing to be recharged. This is especially important for those who travel frequently or spend a lot of time away from a power outlet. A high-watt-hour power bank can be a lifesaver for those who rely on their devices for work or entertainment. One example of a high-capacity power bank is a   100W powerbank , which typically offers a higher watt-hour rating than a reg...

Why Do Some Brands Adopt PPS Charging

Image
  By Pankaj Mirchandani –  PPS stands for “Programmable Power Supply” and it’s a way for your phone, tablet, or other devices to charge quickly and safely. What is PPS Fast Charging? When you plug your device into a charger, it needs a certain amount of power to charge. But sometimes, chargers can give too much or too little power, which can make your device charge too slowly or even damage it. PPS helps make sure your device gets the perfect amount of power like   GAN 65w . One way PPS does this is by using something called “power delivery,” or PD for short. PD is a way for the charger to talk to your device and figure out how much power it needs. So, if your device is almost fully charged, the charger will send less power, but if it’s almost dead, it will send more power. PPS & PD work will always be used in conjunction with a Type-C port. Some PPS chargers use a new material called GaN Charging technology. GaN stands for Gallium Nitride, and it’...

Everything You Need to Know About Wireless Charging Pad - Optimized for the Fastest Charging Experience

Image
  By Anan Sadh – In today’s time, a wireless charging pad is quite a helpful piece of technology to have. It frees our space from cable clutter & lets us charge our devices by just placing them on it. Whether you keep it directly in front of you at work or on your side table at home, a wireless charger can make charging your electronic gadgets ( those which are Qi-enabled) much easy. It is a simple yet effective charging method that has acquired prominence lately. It works on the principle of Induction charging where the charger utilizes Qi-guaranteed transmitting coils for delivering charge to your smartphone. Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) invented the Qi wireless charging strategy. It is the most widely used wireless charging technique & is what many brands use inside their wireless charging gadgets. The only downside is that it is much slower than conventional cable charging & doesn’t continue to charge your device the moment you lift it of...

Understanding Different Charging Protocols

Image
  By Anan Sadh – There are many different types of fast charging protocols such as OPPO’s open VOOC Flash Charge,  OnePlus WARP / Dash , Realme DART charge, Qualcomm’s Quick Charge fast charging & PPS / PD Fast Charging. Some of these are proprietory ( Flash, Dash, Warp, Dart, VooC) & QC,while some are open platforms ( PD & PPS) Nowadays, smart phones have quick charging between 18W to 65W power, with charge times going from 30 minutes to a little more than 60 minutes. Let’s broadly understand the differences. Qualcomm’s Quick Charge QC3.0 / 4.0 Qualcomm’s QC Quick Charge is very familiar today & it is a representative of a high-voltage   fast car charger . It was first launched in 2013 when the highest power was 10W (5V/2A). By QC 3.0, the power increased to 36W, & now it supports 200mV step voltage regulation, which is no longer a fixed set of voltage & current. QC 4 supports s...

Ultraprolink - Trusted Name Amongst The Companies in The Charging Space

Image
  In Conversion with Mr Pankaj Mirchandani, Founder and CEO, UltraProLink. During the past few years, most mobile brands have stopped giving chargers with their handsets. What implication does this have on the charging segment? It all started with Apple deleting the power adapter from its phone packaging stating the reduction of its carbon footprint. All brands have quickly followed suit without realizing that the customer will now need to buy the charger separately which will also have its own packaging – so In my opinion, I don’t think it has anything to do with the reduction of carbon footprint. The phone box has become slimmer so now more phones can be shipped in the same amount of space.  Also with each brand promoting its own charging protocol, they see the opportunity to sell their chargers separately. This is also great for third-party brands like UltraProlink which offers chargers that support multiple protocols to address this pain point of customers in sea...
