Why you should use the original battery charger for iPhone and iPad

iPhone and iPad huge popularity among consumers caused a "side effect" that started an avalanche of various counterfeit products sold under the guise of the original iPhone, iPad and accessories. And if to distinguish the real from the fake iPhone, you can at a glance, with accessories that the situation is somewhat more complicated. Most often, visually determine their authenticity is difficult, and the strength is only for experienced users with a practiced eye. Many people do not give much importance counterfeit accessories, and some are even known to buy cheap copies trying to save money, but in fact, this approach is fundamentally wrong and even dangerous, especially with regard to charging devices. With counterfeit recharges related to a lot of deplorable stories in which people paid with their health in pursuit of cheapness. In this article I want to tell you about the importance of this moment and the main differences between the counterfeit from the original. Together, let us try to understand why the cost of brand-name accessories so different from fakes.

For comparison, take a genuine aypadovskuyu charge from Apple for $ 19 and srednestaticticheskuyu copy off eBay for $ 3. Outside, they look very similar (and are virtually indistinguishable from each other, if they are not to compare side by side), but inside of us waiting for the dramatic differences. Charger from Apple has a lot more components that take up all the space, and their layout and installation are much higher quality. The forgery we see cheap items and a lot of free space.

However, the main difference is the security, the difference is obvious. The original memory is much better insulated, especially the high-voltage portion of the fee, it is wrapped in a special yellow ribbon. The remaining components are separated by a plastic insulator, and some of them wearing a shrink tube. In addition, it is important to have additional insulation. Fake charging can not boast of such precautionary measures, since it is provided only the most minimal insulation.

Another important feature that can not be overlooked inverting charge - in the original memory is used, additional insulation, using red ribbon. At that time, both the forgery it is completely absent. Also, a flagrant breach of elementary rules is electrical distance between points of high and low voltage in a counterfeit accessory. It is here is only some 0.6 mm, which means that any condensate drops will be enough to short-circuit. Apple's, of course, take into account this fact and has carried on the point of clearance - 4 mm.

And the most important difference, which is the first value - this is the output power. Everyone knows that the iPad is almost charged by USB, a long time is charged by the charger, and iPhone, and only from the native 10-watt charging charge properly and within the specified time. So clearly original memory outputs 10 watts, without any oscillation; while the maximum, which is capable of faking - it 5-6 watts, and even with constant vibrations and shocks. Thus the charging process from counterfeit accessory will last longer, moreover, the output current instability may even harm the battery.

I think all our readers are reasonable people who understand the seriousness of the dangers of using counterfeit accessories, and it is not necessary to remind once again about this. Let me just say only that if for some reason you out of order, or lost loved memories, not worth the risk or save by buying cheap copies. From them more harm than good, so your gadget health, and even more so on its own, is not worth saving in any case!
