How to Prevent your Smartphone from Overcharging – Tips and Tricks

One of the main components of mobile phone technology is battery life. The autonomy of these devices rarely allows us to finish in a day without going through the charger unless we make intensive use. In addition, they are not especially fast to charge the battery of the mobile. What is the most efficient way to charge it and maintain its life? This is the question we are going to try to answer since it is not just about charging our phone, but about doing it in the most efficient way possible, that is, having the maximum load capacity in the shortest possible time. Sometimes we only have a very limited time to give our phone a little energy.

How to Charge Smartphone More Efficiently?

The first thing we must keep in mind is that the load is more efficient if it occurs when the phone is off. Logically, if you do not use a battery, everything you charge accumulates, which is why it is the quickest way to turn off the phone and charge it. If this is not possible, we have to try to reduce consumption as much as possible, for example, using airplane mode, to close all connections, disconnecting services that work in the background or reducing the brightness of the screen.

If we do not want to be so drastic we can leave only the WiFi running, instead of 3G or 4G network turning on. Finally, a very important factor is not to use the smartphone while it is charging, or to do it as little as possible. We have to take into account that if on one hand, we are getting power to the battery and on the other hand we use a service or an application that pulls a lot of the battery, such as video or games, in addition to not charging, we are shortening the useful life of the battery, which It will also reduce its load capacity more quickly.

How to Prevent Battery from Overloading?

Another issue to consider is the completion of charging on the smartphone. Today, batteries have protection systems to prevent them from overloading. Due to this, the battery is charged up to 100% and at that moment the voltage input is deactivated and the smartphone begins to consume battery until it reaches 95% approximately, which leading reactivate charging process. For this reason, leaving the smartphone connected all night long is not recommended. We can use applications that tell us when the load level has reached the maximum. You can also recalibrate the battery so that the operating system of the device shows the exact value of its status. The battery has a useful life that is a function of a certain number of load cycles.

Tips to Extend Your Smartphone’s Battery Life

1. Partial charges do not harm the battery of our phone

During the day we have the opportunity to charge the battery of our mobile device for 15 minutes, do not hesitate to do so since the fact of carrying out partial charges or interrupting a charge does not harm the battery. What is really harmful is to push the limit of the charge level of our battery to the limit.

2. It is recommended to charge between 80% and 90% for Extending battery life

It is not optimal to charge the battery until it reaches 100% capacity. In fact, some computer manufacturers, such as Sony, apply this method of series in their batteries and in some computer BIOS there is the option to limit the charge of our battery to only 80%. Charging a battery at 100% of its capacity causes the battery to be stressed when it is at the limit of its capacity. A fact is that the process/time of charging a battery to increase the charge level from 80% to 100% is very slow while the charging process to go from 0% load to 80% load is too much faster.

3. It is advisable to carry out a complete load cycle once in a month or two.

This consists of allowing the battery to discharge completely and afterward to charge it until it reaches 100%. Doing this will help us to calibrate the battery and will ensure that the level of load shown by our phone or mobile device is real.

4. Avoid Keeping your smartphone under the Sunlight

Current batteries are very sensitive to atmospheric conditions. Therefore, if we want to prolong the life of our battery we should not expose our battery directly to the sun, and it should be protected against cold and humidity. The usual storage, operating and safety temperatures of lithium-ion batteries have been indicated above. A lithium battery is charged in the same way on the first day of use as the last day of use. Therefore it is absolutely false that the first charge of a battery has to be of 7 or 8 hours.

5. It is not advisable to leave the phone charging into all night.

Nowadays if we use original chargers and of minimum quality, when the battery charge is complete the charging process will stop automatically. Once the charging process is stopped, the intensity provided by the charger will be used to directly feed our mobile device.

6. It is highly recommended to use the original charger/battery for replacement.

An inadequate or poor quality charger can damage the battery, the mobile device and cause fires and/or explosions. In the case of not using an original charger at least ensure that it is a quality charger, that the output voltage of the charger is the same as the original charger since an overvoltage could damage our mobile device, and finally that the watt provides the charger are equal to or greater than those given by the original charger. Normally chargers that have a very low watt are not recommended to charge the battery of our devices

7. Charging your phone with a wireless charger is not advisable

The current wireless chargers are electromagnetic recharge and this will cause a large amount of heat to be produced/released when charging the battery. This heat generated in the charging process will stress the battery generating a reduction in the useful life of the battery. It should be remembered that lithium-ion batteries are quite sensitive to temperature and other atmospheric conditions.

Our Recommended App to Check Phone’s Batter Health

AMPERE

A very useful application, developed by a member of the XDA forum, to check the health of your battery. In addition, with this app, we can check which is the best charger for our phone because when we have it connected it informs us of the amount of charge that is entering it. Thus, we can check with several chargers and choose the one that has more power. Likewise, when we have it disconnected from the battery it informs us of the output amperage, that is, the energy that is being spent at that moment. Ampere is available on IOS as well as on Android.

There are many many benefits of Meditation and Yoga practice which transforms our life and broadens the horizon in a way you cannot imagine. And its never too late to start practicing and good luck and enjoy life to the most being healthy and staying fit. So let’s compare both the ancient techniques and see which one would suit you better

Meditation

Meditation is not about becoming a different person, a new person, or even a better person. It’s about training your mind and getting a healthy sense of perspectives. You’re not trying to turn off your thoughts or feelings rather learning them to observe them without judgment. Life is sometimes difficult and cannot control what’s happening. Life is so busier that we are overloaded with information and digitally connected 24/7 and more and more people are looking for peace of mind. However, we are challenged by circumstances or technically connected Meditation can reset our mind in both awareness and compassion.

Benefits of Meditation

The benefit of Meditation is life changing and it feels different for each person who practices it. It improves the psychological emotional and physical quality of life. People who practice meditation regularly have a higher level of happiness patience acceptance and compassion. They never have stress depression pain or frustration. People have better sleep and better relationships while meditating regularly.

Meditation is practiced all over the world for thousands of years. Nearly every religion including Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity, Muslims Islams does Meditation. Meditation is also a consciousness-changing technique which can benefit the psychological well being.

Types of Meditation

There are different forms of Meditation but two most important form is concentrative meditation and mindfulness meditation:

Concentrative Meditation: You focus on a specific object whether it’s a specific word or your breath or chanting a mantra the goal is to focus on it.

Mindfulness Meditation: Mindfulness involves the state of being aware and involved in the present moment.

Place and Time

Find a suitable place to practice Meditation were there is minimal interruptions turn off your television and silent your mobile or phone. The amount of time you spend to meditate depends on experience and circumstances. Instead of one longer session time, you can do two smaller sessions which will boost day time mindfulness and nighttime relaxation and sleep. Even a 3min session during lunch time will also benefit.

Posture to Meditate

To focus on meditation posture is very important. Keep your back straight, rest your feet flat on the floor, and your hands resting on your lap or knees relaxing and comfortable. Your neck and shoulder should be relaxed and defocus your eyes. You can start meditation practice from a podcast or there are multiple apps which we can download and practice from it.

Technique for Meditation

Breathe deeply through the nose and out through the mouth. Focus on the sensation of the breathe and breathe naturally and close your eyes gently. Scan your body from head to toe and observe any tension or discomfort. Focus on the quality of each breath whether deep or shallow long or short fast or slow. Silently count your breath for inhaling and exhale and continue.

Its worth knowing meditation is not a skill that can be mastered, it takes patience and consistency to feel the benefit. Meditation is about knowing the mind as it is and not how we want it to be. Meditation is not a quick fix its a journey of life. The more you practice the more you will benefit from.

YOGA

Yoga comes from a Sanskrit word YOKE means Union. Yoga is a form of discipline – a physical, mental and spiritual practices. It is also a controlled mind and body. It is said that yoga is been practiced from 5000 years back from our ancient times called the INDUS civilization. Yoga is not about bending and twisting the body and holding the breath but a mechanism to experience the whole universe as a part of yourself and this is the Union that Yoga creates.

Health benefits

A cell is the basic structure of any living being. The human body is made up of trillions of cells and it gets generated regularly. Various yoga postures make the body flexible providing uniform blood supply throughout the body. When the blood is good the cell also multiples and nourished.

A Beginners Guide to Ketogenic Diet

The ketogenic diet is a very trendy diet. It is an extremely low carb diet and very high in fat. After 24 to 36 hours, liver and muscle glycogen stores are depleted, insulin secretion decreases, and ketone formation (ketogenesis) becomes the only option to feed the brain. You cannot eat starchy food when you are on a ketogenic diet. Intake of fats should be around 75 to 80% of your total calories and of your protein should be moderate

To achieve the effect of ketogenesis, carbohydrate intake should be between 20g and 50g per day, mostly from vegetables low in carbohydrates. In comparison, a balanced diet provides about 175g to 250g of carbohydrate per day.

How does it help?

When you reduce your intake of carbohydrates, the levels of glucose (blood sugar) and insulin decrease, this allows the fat cells to release the water they are storing (that is why many times a loss of water is experienced first and not fat) and then the fat cells can enter the bloodstream to go to the liver.

The liver will then form “ketones” from the fat compound that will be “burned” by serving as the main source of energy. Changing to keto has a transition period where the body uses all its stored energy (glycogen reserves) and does not have enough enzymes to break down fat to produce ketones. This means that the energy does not arrive immediately so it is common to experience fatigue, headache, and dizziness during the first

Benefits on Being Keto Diet:

Weight loss
Regulates blood sugar levels
Decreases anxiety for sweet foods
Provides energy in the day
Improves concentration and attention so it is ideal for people with dreaming disorders, attention disorders, and epilepsy.
Regulates cholesterol and blood pressure

What you can eat

Herbs and spices: They are perfect for adding flavor to your but go beyond the usual salt and pepper and generously season your meals with cumin and cinnamon, basil and oregano, parsley and paprika and turmeric, garlic and parsley, ginger.
Fruits: Most fruits are too rich in sugar to be accepted into the keto diet, but you can consume them in moderation. Stick to small portions and try to limit your intake to one serving per day. Fruits that are consumed; Avocados, Berries like Strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, lemons

Fats and oils, the mainstream of the keto diet, fat is the macronutrient you really need to focus on, but be sure to enjoy good fats.

Virtual Private Network or VPN that’s what it is called. Sounds demystified? That’s the usual first impression of VPN to a beginner but then you would look forward to getting this piece of software in your system forever. VPN for PC is a paid or free software product or service which allows users to access the web privately and safely. You will just have to get the access of a remote server and your IP changes for the time being.

4. Clean the equipment after using it

After going on a session where the camera was exposed to sand or dirt, it is recommended to clean with a special brush to remove everything that could be stuck to the camera. Next, a q-tip (earbuds) should be used to finish the cleaning. This is important to prevent particles from entering the camera system and damaging it. Clean the lens with lens cleaner and a regular microfiber cloth.

Depending on the type of work, you should think about the maintenance. If you put yourself to taking pictures every day and outdoors, the indicated thing will be that each year you send it with a technician to give you a maintenance check.
