Danger Of Overnight Phone Charging: My Experience by ShinyJay22(m): 1:44pm On May 17, 2017 |
It seemed to me as though i was in a dream cos i couldn't believe i was going to be in this kind of situation that sunday morning (30th of april 2017). Some hours before then i had been keeping tabs on the boxing bout between A.j & Klitchko via nland with my infinix hot 2. Around 11pm after the bout i was feeling dizzy due to long hours of being wide awake, so i then decide to go to bed. Meanwhile,my phone was at 50% charge at the time but due to the unpredictable nature of our guys (nepa or whatever the name they choose to call themselves) i decided to plug my device whilst i go to sleep (big mistake). That was how i woke up on Sunday around 8am, after observing a lil meditation i decided to go for my phone. On picking it up first thing i observed was that my phone was switched off. That's when i sensed danger (because i didn't switch my phone off in the first place). I then tried to switch it on but it didn't come up but rather my screen backlight was flashing on and off in sync with the back cameras flash light. I later checked my charger only to discover that it had blown overnight, that was when my worst fear was confirmed. I proceeded to check if it was a minor problem that could easily be fixed but i found out the power surge had damaged the phones panel therefore rendering it irreparable. Thats my story nlanders. If anyone had told me i'd lose my device to overnight charging i would have laughed it off but that's where i'm at today. Therefore, I decided to share my story with you guys so that you may learn from my error. Good day guys. 94 Likes 10 Shares |

China phone plus fake charger equals disaster. I'm not surprised. Original phone chargers have inbuilt regulators, even if there is a power surge it's output doesn't change. Buy Original phone brands, stop buying all these China brands with mediocre components embedded inside the phone I once used Tecno C8, the phone just crashed one morning just like that after an OTA update ever since then I don't do MTKs Unfortunately you learnt the hard way. ![]() Sorry Chap Modified: FTC after months I joined Nairaland.

My Samsung Galaxy prime also got damaged within 10min when i charged it with GEN, I was surprised dat the phone i just used in chatting and calling people suddenly became a dead phone. I even had an argument with my neighbor concerning how i met my phone switched off whereas it was ON Wen I left it to charge.. But unfortunately, wen i took the phone to a care center; they said its because i didn't use the specified charger of the phone and it has caused damage to the phone which can't be repair again than to change the panel... 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Tecno, infinix and their kinds na apology. I rather use a 2013 Samsung, HTC, LG than these 2017 Chinese roadside substandard plastic toys. When you tell them how dangerous these roadside substandard failures are to use; they would be equating them to STANDARD PHONES. Telling you they have eyes and ears scanners, pepper spray etc. That phone would have stopped charging if it were a STANDARD PHONE once it detects a power surge. Nonsense 31 Likes 1 Share |
