Can I leave the charge in the socket without the phone? Myths and misconceptions

I always leave the charging of a mobile phone to a power outlet. Nothing wrong with that I do not see, it is normal practice of people. However, there are a lot of reverse adherents, and they claim that it is dangerous. In fact, around this goes so much myth that self-understanding - where the right advice, and where the error is almost impossible. Is there a risk in the left charge or not?

On consumption of electric energy

It is well known that even without charging a gadget attached still consumes electricity. And many people give "advice": that if you always retrieve the charger, you can save a substantial amount. Let no one in the past month, but over the year as accurately. I believe that all this is nonsense. Well, as you're there to save? Just 5-10 rubles a year, and that in the best case.

If within a year to extract charge from the power outlet, you can save a third of the kilowatt. Agree with the economy does not go far, but the family budget is not exactly it right.

But if you stick to the principle that the penny penny gained, of course, remove the charge after the "dressing" the gadget. There is no longer a question of finance, and your personal desires. I did not do and will not do.

How many live charge?

In fact, it all depends on the manufacturer, the quality, the cost of the charger. But there is a myth - that if you leave the charger into a wall outlet, the reduced operating time. Truth is. On average, the charger designed for 50 thousand hours. It is about 2,000 days, or nearly six years. So, if you are in a period of six years has not got out of the charging socket, it will still work this time.

Assuming that the charge will not leave, you can save, so to speak, year of operation - at best. But is it advisable? All the same, most likely, during this time you will have to change the charger - it can get scratched, stop charging or wire breaks. And the phones we are a part of me, hardly anyone walking around with a cell phone for five consecutive years.

If you are 100% sure that your charger will work for 10-15 years, and will not break for other reasons, be sure to unplug it!

Fire danger

There are outlet equipped with a USB portals. In appearance they do not differ from the usual elements - with round connectors, which are in our apartments. Just below the ports are made rectangular - similar chargers. "Internal" in such a device like a charger. Under the hood is not only the wire but the circuit. This means that it is also the power supply, simply place it on the wall. He is constantly connected to the voltage, but the fire did not happen. Therefore, there is no fear that the power supply will explode.

However, common risk factors should be considered:

• Wiring in the house of an old or defective.
• If you are not worth the auto protection, warning the consequences of a short circuit or network overload.

In the latter cases, the effects of a wide variety, but only the cause is still not in the charger.

When the house small children

Perhaps it was the only reason that a certain period of life is always removed from the wall socket charger, and hid in the locker, and has a lockable! If the usual outlets, we were standing in the house of the plug, then charging - this will not do.

The power supply is dangerous, even outside the outlet. A child can poke a finger, and remove the back will not work. And use a metal object, but the same teaspoon of the reverse side. The cord may break, bite - the insulation is not designed for children's teeth.

And you remove the charger from the outlet, and for what reason? Share your opinion in the comments!
