It cools when it is hot, and sometimes it warms when it is cold. Both things can be useful functions.
(Even on old junk I've had without functioning aircon, turning the selector to "Vent," the temperature to "Cold," and the fan to some speed other than "Off" works to circulate air around the phone.)
It wasn't clear what the combination of triggers was, but sometimes the Play Store would wake up and start updating everything that could be updated -- and do all of these updates in parallel.
Once or twice, it did this when I got in the car, plugged my phone in, and started driving -- sucking down what was (at the time) an enormous amount of [thankfully unmetered] cellular bandwidth and using enough power that the battery either would not charge, or would slowly discharge.
It'd get a pretty toasty.
I'm looking for some device like a 6-port Chargie... Or a 6-port charger like this Anker: https://www.anker.com/products/a2123?variant=37436925477014 that would allow you to control the charge status of each port via Zigbee / Wifi. Something like A/C smart plug functionality but for each USB port.
Anyone see that?
I have an old Mac multiport adapter (USB C / USB A / VGA) that I use only to limit the current going into my smartphone, for the sake of battery health. It effectively downgrades any fast charger to a slow charger. This looks nicer, thanks for sharing.
