Myths about Batteries you Should Not Believe

June 13, 2017 by Lasya K Leave a Comment

Laptops, mobile phones, still have a very serious problem that is either the battery lasts for a very little time or degrades using more than it should. That is largely due to the fault of the user (who does not know how the battery works and therefore uses it badly), but it is that the manufacturers do not really explain its operation at a technical level.

Here’s The Reason Behind The Explosion Of Phone Batteries And Preventive Measures!

It is clear that if we have the laptop to go to college (or anywhere else) and we use it two hours a day then we do not have to worry about the battery because we will be charging it in the ‘natural way’: loading, unloading, and thus successively, but not excessively. But a very big question arises when we spend many hours using it.

Myths about Batteries you Should Not Believe

These are the myths about the batteries you should not believe and should be aware of. Continue reading the article to know more.

Cycles, the key

How much truth is there in cycles? It is always said that the useful life of a laptop battery is a thousand cycles, but is it true? A cycle is what is considered as the action of loading regardless of the value from where we start and the value where we end up.

Generally, not only mobile, Laptop battery, each and every battery goes through charge cycles. We all don’t know about these battery cycles. A charge cycle happens when you use all of the battery’s power but that doesn’t necessarily mean a single charge. Let us brief you in detail. For example, you could use half of your mobiles or laptops charged in one day and then recharge it fully. If you did the same thing the next day, it would count as one charge cycle, not two. This way, it takes several days to complete a cycle.

Each and every battery has a limited amount of charge cycles before it is considered as consumed. If it is consumed, a battery replacement is recommended. Once the battery reaches its cycle count, you will notice a reduction in the battery life. For this, the only solution is knowing how many charge cycles your battery has and how many are left can help you determine when a battery replacement is required.

But it does not happen instantaneously, of course. It does not mean that when the time comes as if it were a light bulb, it stops working altogether. What happens is that from cycle one to cycle one thousand is gradually degrading.

All cycles are not equal as the same

Suppose we use the computer uninterrupted for many hours. For example, let us assume an eight-hour work day. Suppose now that the battery of our laptop lasts three hours (although the premium range arrives some until eleven hours).

We would then be consuming 2.6 cycles in a single day. As they are complete cycles, this is summarised in that our battery would last between 300 and 500 cycles (we use 400 for the calculations). As a result, at the rate of 2.6 cycles per day, five days a week, assuming a month is four weeks, the laptop battery would be very degraded to almost 8 months. This is a lot, of course.

Remove the battery or not?

The battery should not be removed, even using the computer all day at home. Do it normally, when it is necessary to charge the battery, you do it, and when it is full, you stop charging. If it was bad, don’t you think that there would be laptops to which the battery can not be removed? The new laptops, especially the ultrabooks.

Even we could also leave the cable all day connected, not bad. Yes, there are more cycles, but if we go to the table above, we can see that the smaller the cycles, the harder the battery. This implies that if we charge the battery, for example, always from 98 to 100%, the cycle is so small that it is not appreciated. As we will see, if we are dedicated to making cycles whose range is 10%, we could make up to 4700 cycles.

Fast loading, is it useful?

Fast charging is very useful to get out of a hurry, but we should never use it on a day to day basis. And is that, okay, yes, we can charge the mobile tremendously faster than the standard charge, but we are also degrading faster. This is because the actual fast charge focuses on delivering more voltage, which makes charging speeds smaller.

But, in doing so, we are not only heating the phone (which in itself is bad for the battery, because at higher temperature further degradation) but also degrade more by the extra voltage. Speaking in silver, some lithium ions degrade, preventing them from being able to store energy again.

These are the most important keys to treating the battery and do not degrade faster than it should. So, these are the myths that should follow and don’t be in hurry to spoil your gadget.

6 Important Things to Keep in Mind Before Buying a Wireless Headset

June 2, 2017 by Lasya K Leave a Comment

The wireless headsets are becoming increasingly popular because of the improved wireless technology and comfort they provide against those that carry the cable. You may have already analysed its advantages and disadvantages and you have decided that you need a wireless, but you may lose among the innumerable variety that exists. We tell you 6 things to keep in mind before buying a wireless headset

6 Important Things to Keep in Mind Before Buying a Wireless Headset

It is always important to know about the product before buying. Here, we will explain you about the main things that we have to consider before buying a Wireless headset. Scroll down to read.

1. Types of wireless connection

There are three types of wireless headphones, which can be divided into two categories: those that require a separate transmitter and those that do not.

In the first category, we find the headphones by infrared and the radio frequency. The infrared wireless connection is the best option for connecting to the TV, but an unobstructed line of sight is required between the headphones and the transmitter, which means there are limits both in the distance and the angle at which they can be used.

Radio frequency is more powerful. Wireless headphones that use radio frequencies can operate at distances up to 45 meters, and the signal can pass through the walls, so they can be used for a stereo or TV.

And coming to Bluetooth technology it is your choice. If you want headphones without a transmitter then it is the best choice for the general use. Make sure that the device (mobile or tablet) you use also have this technology. Bluetooth has a range of about 10 meters. Pretty good.

2. Bluetooth and sound quality

The biggest argument against the use of Bluetooth headsets is that they offer poor sound quality. This was because Bluetooth was not originally intended for streaming high-quality music.

The first versions of the Bluetooth standard compressed the audio a lot, producing a very high digital sound. With the increasing demand for these headphones, they began to pay more attention to improving the sound. The Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) was introduced to enable high-quality stereo audio transmission through the SBC codec, achieving exceptional quality.

In addition, other enhancements have been incorporated into the Bluetooth 3.0 and 4.0 versions, thanks to the introduction of the aptX codec, which promises performance just like a CD. Manufacturers like Samsung, LG, Motorola and HTC include aptX on their devices.

Another problem with Bluetooth headsets is latency, that is, the delay between the audio signal that goes into the headset and the time when you can hear your music. You will not notice this defect if you are listening to music, but if you are watching a video the sound may be slightly out of sync. Latency varies depending on hardware and software configurations. Bluetooth 4.0 has low latency, so you get better results than with previous versions.

3. NFC technology

Wireless headphones are easy to set up. You need to pair them with the audio device and this is usually done through the Bluetooth software built into the device. You will have to enter a password during installation.

Some headphones are also compatible with NFC technology that allows devices to communicate simply by being very close to each other. This can reduce the need to enter an access code for the initial configuration, and also speeds up the process of reconnecting the devices.

4. The battery

Wireless headphones require their own power source in the form of a built-in rechargeable battery or standard disposable batteries. In headphones that require a wireless transmitter, the transmitter often functions as a charger.

5. Size and shape

The wireless headphones can be found in three styles: ‘over-ear’, ‘on-ear’ and ‘in-ear’. The first two are very similar to their cable counterparts. In-ear, they tend to be a bit different. The smaller the battery life, the shorter the battery life.

6. The Remote Control

Many wired headsets have a series of buttons on the cable that is used to start, stop and skip song or answer calls thanks to a small built-in microphone.

Logically, the wireless headset does not have this option, although we will find some basic controls along with the microphone. The accessibility of these controls is something that should always be checked when buying the handset.

These are the 6 main things that need to be considered before buying a wireless headset. We should never always see the reviews of the other people when buying according to your needs. Firstly see whether that product meets your requirement or not and then take the reviews of the people.

Best 5 Wireless headphones priced below Rs 10,000 in India

June 2, 2017 by Lasya K 1 Comment

Wireless headphones priced below Rs 10,000 in India: The majority of electronic devices today are designed to be mobile. You are constantly on the go, and your tech should be able to keep up with you. Smartphones and laptops are getting smaller, lighter and more hands-free day-by-day. But recently, from the past few years, headphones have also been following this trend. Forwarding Wireless Headphones are into the market. In today’s world, you don’t see a cable connecting your laptop, smartphone or tablet together with your headphones, all they are now available as Wireless.

Choosing the right pair of headphones is much harder than you think. Unlike buying a smartphone, where all features are tangible and on paper, the true quality of headphones is very subjective and differs from person to person.

Every ear is unique and finding the right match for it requires in-depth research and comparison. In this list of “6 Best Wireless Headphones under Rs 10000 in India,” we have covered some of the leading brands in the industry and compared their products on the basis of sound signature, design and durability, additional features and value for money. Check out the pros and cons of these exceptional over-the-head / on-ear headphones and decide which one is suited best for your listening style.

Basic Knowledge About Headphone

One of the first considerations in choosing wireless headphones is deciding which ones are most comfortable. There are a few different styles of Bluetooth headphones that rest differently on your head and ears. You want headphones that you can wear for long periods of time without your ears or head becoming fatigued.

Over The Ears

These headphones cover your entire ear. Generally larger than both on-ear and earbud-style headphones, these are some of the most comfortable headphones you will find. They are usually heavily cushioned around the ears and have cushioned headbands to keep your head and ears from hurting during prolonged use.

On-Ear

This type of headphones rests over or against your ears and comes in a number of different styles and sizes. They are often convenient for travel, as many of them fold up into the headband, making them more portable than over-the-ear headphones. Since these headphones press against your ears, they can sometimes cause fatigue and become uncomfortable over long periods of use.

In Ear

Also known as wireless earbuds, these are much smaller than both on-ear and over-the-ear headphones. They fit right into your ear and generally don’t have a headband. This style is ultraportable but doesn’t have the speaker size to deliver the type of audio quality that over-the-ears and on-ear headphones provide.

Seven steps to save your Mobile Phone from Water Damage

May 29, 2017 by Lasya K 3 Comments

When you decide to multitask while eating whilst with one hand on your device and the other in your plate that’s when things can get things little dangerous for your mobile devices. What if your mobile dropped in water?

When you have your Mobile and your water bottle side by side it might give you a big reason to worry. Because you never know when the water could mess up your electronic devices. When you spill water on your Mobile device that’s when you might start panicking but before you panic you need to do save your device first from any water damage. To do you have to follow these seven simple steps to revive your dead mobile device back to life. Continue reading for the steps to follow.

Seven steps to save your Mobile Phone if it is Wet

These are the steps you have to follow to save your wet Mobile phone.

Seven applications to turn your mobile into a surveillance camera

Step 1: Remove Battery

It does not matter anything more than this. You should not take the mobile and look if the screen still works, or if water has been leaked on the screen. The important thing is to remove the battery as fast as possible. A mobile is an electronic device and therefore operates on electricity. The electrical contacts of a mobile are of a millimetre precision.

The water conducts the electricity, and when entering the mobile what it does is to put in contact all the connections. As you know, this produces a short circuit. Therefore, the best we can do is remove the battery as fast as possible to cut off the electricity. Strangely enough, a cell phone with no battery can be put into the washing machine, removed, dried and reused as the first day. The problem is the short circuit.

Step 2: Check the water damage sensor

All the mobiles carry a sensor specifically designed for situations in which the device gets wet. If a user picks up a mobile phone, throws it in the water, breaks it, then dries it, and wants the warranty to cover it, the company could not do anything to show that it has fallen into the water, except to put a sensor. The sensor is usually a white dot or a white square that is on the back of the device, near the battery area. If the mobile has never been wet, you will find this target. However, if you find it red, you know that the warranty will not cover you and that you will have to find the way to fix the mobile. If in spite of being wet, it is still blank, but it does not work, do not hesitate, request that you cover the warranty.

Step 3: Run away from the salt water

The next thing we are going to say is little weird, but that is what we have to do. If your phone has been dropped into a sea water or salt water, then you need to rinse it with fresh water. You have to be very careful because the salt can be dangerous inside the device, and it would be the end of it trying to use it with the salt inside it. Therefore, it is necessary to take a risk and rinse it in fresh water.

Step 4: Dry the mobile

This step is usually the first, and here is the fourth. The first thing that people usually do is to dry their mobile phone once it is dropped in the water when that is not the important thing. If the battery is out, it does not matter if it is dried before or after. Firstly, with a cloth, or with an absorbent paper, remove all the possible water, avoiding to move the device much or shake it, to place hardly accessible.

Step 5: Try to make the void

What happens when you pick up a bottle and absorb all the air inside? You absorb all the liquid it contains, and you are able to reduce its volume. Well, something like this happens here. The device is rigid, not like a bottle, but the liquid comes out the same. This method can be very useful. You could put it in a vacuum bag and suck up all the air. If you have nothing to do with it, then you will have to skip this step.

Step 6: Use Hair dryer to dry the wet mobile

The sixth step has to be carried out very carefully. It is about taking a hair dryer and trying to dry the mobile. You have to be careful, because excessive heat could end the mobile, melting certain elements. Usually, today’s devices are prepared to withstand high temperatures but do not tempt yourself to luck. The most complex is the screen. If water enters the screen, everything being so precisely and almost airtight, it will be complex to make the heat get there and evaporate the water, but you have to try. If it can be dismantled to dry better, but that is already under the responsibility of each, and only if you know how to ride again.

Step 7: Meter in rice

It is one of those myths that are fulfilled. Putting your cell phone in rice can save your wet mobile. Rice absorbs moisture like sponges. That is why, if the phone has been wet, after having followed these steps and let it cool a few minutes after the dryer, it is best to put it in a pot with rice for 24 hours.

After implementing these seven steps, your wet mobile should be resurrected. If it does not work properly, it may be short-circuited before we removed the battery. It is necessary to clarify that this process is generic and that if the cell phone has received a lot of water, it may be a good to extend the terms. We can even stop using it for a week, and a few minutes a day leave it under the sun facing towards the sun to evaporate the residual water that is inside your mobile.
