Disadvantages: Wireless USB Charger

By Johny Jacson


More and more mobile device users have turned to wireless chargers for their needs, and this is easily understandable. Since its inception as a small novelty device, the wireless charger has since then grew to carve out its own market niche.

It has achieved mainstream popularity and success, and the numerous users, coupled with the continued demand for products, reveal the strength of the wireless charger industry. If you still do not understand what the rage is all about, here are several of the advantages to using a USB wireless charger (to help give you an idea):

Second, another disadvantage is that wireless chargers generally come at an extra cost. Naturally, these are the most recent innovations in the industry, which makes them pricier than traditional models. This is, of course, understandable, and many are willing to pay for the better technology anyway. Still, keep in mind that you must look for a charger that is reasonably priced-do not just fork over cash thinking the expensiveness is automatically justified just because it is wireless. Price does not always equal quality.

Third, another disadvantage to using a wireless USB charger is the added complexity of the system. Obviously, a wireless charger's system will be more complicated than that of a traditional wired charger. While this could be seen as a good technological leap, there is a tradeoff in the sense that some maintenance issues could also come up.

Since the device is more complicated, addressing these issues could also be more difficult as a consequence.

This will no longer be a concern with a USB wireless charger. Some wireless chargers have their own physical wires, but the best ones, like the Vority Ki+4, have built-in AC adapters.

However, keep in mind that for their light structure and their advanced and convenient technology, the issue regarding lessened efficiency is easily compensated.

The important thing to highlight here is that wireless chargers are still part of a developing technology. One cannot expect the same stability of performance that comes with the traditional wired chargers. Some see this as a disadvantage, because it means that the technology could be unreliable at times.

A USB wireless charger works as a flat transformer, and its shape allows it to be used with a very wide variety of items. The transformer has two sides: the primary side and the secondary side. The former is hooked to the energy source, and the latter will be inside the equipment which requires charging. The other parts include the two flat coils, as mentioned earlier, plus a pad or mat that will be linked directly to the device for charging.

Remember that any piece of technology have its disadvantages. No piece of tech is perfect. The key here is to be aware of these disadvantages and spend enough time to search for specific models that can offset these. This will make sure you make the most out of your wireless USB charger.
