JAKARTA - Today's cellphones or smartphones are equipped with a large enough battery capacity. Even so, sometimes continuous use will make battery power quickly wasteful and easily run out.

In addition to charging using the default charger, there are several other ways to maintain the condition of the cellphone battery so that it stays prime. These ways can extend battery life and maintain its quality. Here are the details.

Don't Charge When It's Out

As a myth, many people believe that when recharging the battery, you need to do it until it is full. For batteries that use lead-acid cells, the above method is mandatory and should be done.

However, you can't apply the same method to smartphone batteries. Judging from the basic ingredients that make it up, it's different. Yes, the latest smartphone batteries usually use lithium-ion cells as the basis.

So, the right habit pattern if you want to keep your phone battery from running out quickly is to recharge it not too full. Why is that? The reason is, when the battery is running low, Li-ion will adjust its use by consuming only a little power.

Then, as the amount of battery power increases because you recharge, the amount of power consumption from the smartphone to the battery also increases. Until finally, when the battery capacity approaches past 70%, the amount of consumption will double.

So, to keep it, you better charge the battery up to 80% only. To be sure, as reported by AndroidAuthority, the battery capacity of 30% -80% is the right capacity to maintain the quality of use.

So, recharge that is done slowly but repeatedly is the right step to maintain battery quality.

Avoid Overcharging

The habit of many people today is to recharge the battery before going to bed. The hope is that the smartphone is ready to use when you wake up because it is 100% charged. In fact, this is a bad habit of recharging the battery.

One reason is that a continuously charged battery even when fully charged can reduce the stability of lithium metal in the long term. Later, unstable lithium metal can make the smartphone fail to operate and cause repeated system reboots.

In addition, it can make the phone hotter due to excess power. So, ideally, recharging the smartphone battery is stopped immediately when the capacity is 100%.

Don't Let It Overheats

Well, the third habit that you must avoid is to keep your smartphone from getting too hot or overheating.

Many say that a hot engine is the biggest obstacle that keeps you away from a long-lasting battery.

So, if you don't want to feel the hassle of a damaged the phone battery, you should immediately apply the habits and ways so that the phone battery doesn't run out quickly.
