Am a fan of BB authentic charger not until the day one of my charger was bad so I had to make a switch with another part of my other spoilt one. There is a general knowledge that the charger with more mass is original due to the presence of mini transformer inside.Only for me to open the fake BB charger and I found a metal of about 20g inside to support the weight to make v the fake have weight like the original. Pls be warned Nigerians. Pics below of both fake and original.

Funny and annoying, because they sell for the same price and you can't even check it before you buy.

Jeez!!!

and d invisible witch control

Sorry o

Another way to check if your charger is original is to check the cord, Original chargers usually have strong and thick cords where as the fake ones are usually light, easily flexible and thin. By looking at the two wires you will surely recognise which one is fake.

Some of them equally use thicker insulation material to cover the thin cables.

U will get it wrong bro

Yea... Dat charger is one of the best BlackBerry chargers... the metal stuff u find inside serves as a cooler.

OK....4

there is absolutely nothing wrong with d charger.... simple rectification, stepping down of voltage level, smoothing and control of current.... shikena...oga, dat charger is good

And I just bought mine yesterday after someone took the gionee 2.0A charger that came with my phone.
Let me run to check the details you guys gave.

check the write-up on the body of the charger, if you can't read it clearly, it is fake!

I sell original 2A chargerS 2000 naira only

It is not an heat zink..if it is an heat zink,it has to be on the main board and the major reason for incorporate it in any electronic design is to dissipate heat away from the board so as to prevent damage to the board due to overheating from the usage of the appliances.

Do you think an heat sink has to be unmounted from the board just like it was posted above?

lolz... let me put it dis way... i will always tell ppl TO LEAVE ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AS YOU SEE THEM... heat sink is mounted to help 'absorb' heat from heat dissipating components such as MOSFETs and power transistors... its not ideal to remove dem....

dat guy said he replaced it wif paper, its a NO NO for me

have u ever seen a locally made inverter? i think u nid to see d inside of one. heat sink is not necessarily on the PCB. u can mount it anywhere. just make sure its aim is fulfilled. Heat sink has no 'electrical' contribution to any device. NOTE: It might be grounded in some devices tho...

Chai!!! My people, make una fear god oh.

One chance, three gbosa for our ibo Bois in the ows
