Recently, high temperature warnings have been issued in many places across the country.Not only can people not tolerate the weather of around 40 ° C, but electric vehicles are also undergoing a "high temperature test." Every summer, news about electric vehicle fires, self-ignition, and charging accidents will always enter our sights. Some people think that the weather is too hot, but in fact, the heat is just the trigger, and the real problem often comes from some wrong habits in daily use. A lot of accidents don't happen suddenly, but they accumulate little by little by neglecting safety details over a long period of time.
These 7 Things You Never Do When Caring in the Summer
01 It is a habit of many people to charge immediately after being exposed to the sun. Many drivers will charge directly after riding. If the vehicle has just finished riding and experiences sun exposure and the battery temperature is high, charging at this time will further increase the heat load.
Xiao Xin's suggestion: Parking and sitting for about 30 minutes, until the battery naturally cools down, before charging, which is more conducive to the stable operation of the battery.
02 Try to avoid charging all night Many people think that the charger has a protective function and that charging all the night is fine. Summer temperatures are still higher at night, and it's easier to accumulate heat when chargers, sockets and lines are constantly working. If you also encounter situations such as aging wiring and poor contact with the socket, the risk will also increase. Xiao Xin advises: develop the habit of losing power in time after filling up, and avoid long periods of continuous charging.
03 Don't use flying wires to charge Although it is convenient to pull the plug board upstairs to charge, the wires are prone to aging and breaking, and may increase the risk of leakage, short circuit, etc. during high temperatures, rain, or running of vehicles. At the same time, fly wire charging also presents certain fire safety risks. Xiao Xin advises: For the safety of yourself and others, try to choose a formal charging facility for charging.
Do not mix chargers with different battery voltage and capacity corresponding to different charging parameters. Using a charger that does not match can lead to abnormal charging, increased heat generation, and affect battery performance. Little new advice: Use original or matching chargers as a priority.
Don't privately modify batteries and lines to increase speed or range, which may disrupt vehicle matching and increase safety risks such as overload and poor contact. Small new recommendation: Use according to the vehicle's original configuration.
06 When the battery exhibits these abnormalities, never continue to use If the battery shows deformation of the drum pack, abnormally hot charging, odor, noticeable decline in battery life, or corrosion or loosening of the junction end, these are "help-to-help signals" from the battery. Small new advice: Use should be discontinued and disposed of promptly.
07 Don't rush to charge after rain. There are frequent thunderstorms in the summer. Although the vehicle has a certain waterproof capability, if there is residual water in the charging port and interface position after rain, do not rush to charge. Xiao Xin advises that it should be dried and dried naturally before charging.
These are the three things that really affect security.
Many people think that when an electric car catches fire, it is "bad luck." In fact, most security problems depend on three factors:
✳First, there are mistaken usage habits;✳Secondly, there are ageing and damaged wiring and accessories;✳Third, there are non-standard quality battery products. The weather cannot be changed, but the car habits and product quality can be actively chosen.
Quality is the greatest guarantee of safety.
As the core component of electric vehicles, the battery cannot be supported by reliable quality every time it is charged and discharged and every time it leaves. Longxin Batteries always adheres to quality as the core, controlling every step of the process from raw material selection and production process to finished product testing, striving to provide users with a more stable and reliable product experience.
Faced with the high temperature environment in summer, Long Xin battery uses wide-temperature black technology, has better environmental adaptability, and still maintains stable work performance under different climate conditions such as high temperature and severe cold. We focus not only on power output, but also on the stability and reliability of the product during long-term use. Because we always believe that a really good battery not only allows you to ride farther, but also gives you greater peace of mind every time you set off.
