  2. Plug-in electric vehicle fire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug-in_electric_vehicle_fire

    The fire appears to have originated [84] at the wall connection where the Tesla charging equipment was plugged in. Shortly afterwards, Tesla updated the Model S firmware to reduce charging current when power fluctuations were detected [85] and replaced wall adapters with a new unit containing a thermal fuse. [86]

  3. Inductive charging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_charging

    Inductive charging is also used in vehicles, power tools, electric toothbrushes, and medical devices. The portable equipment can be placed near a charging station or inductive pad without needing to be precisely aligned or make electrical contact with a dock or plug. Inductive charging is named so because it transfers energy through inductive ...

  4. Memory effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_effect

    Voltage depression is caused by repeated over-charging of a battery, which causes the formation of small crystals of electrolyte on the plates. [citation needed] These can clog the plates, increasing resistance and lowering the voltage of some individual cells in the battery. This causes the battery as a whole to seem to discharge rapidly as ...

    That depends on which version you get. But all the hoaxes spread around share some common ground: They say Facebook is going to start charging its users. The price may be anywhere from $3.99 to $9.99.

  6. Lead–acid battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead–acid_battery

    With time, the charge stored in the chemicals at the interface, often called interface charge or surface charge, spreads by diffusion of these chemicals throughout the volume of the active material. Consider a battery that has been completely discharged (such as occurs when leaving the car lights on overnight, a current draw of about 6 amps).

  7. Image persistence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_persistence

    Liquid crystals have a natural relaxed state. When a voltage is applied they rearrange themselves to block certain light waves.If left with the same voltage for an extended period of time (e.g. displaying a pointer or a taskbar in one place, or showing a picture for an extended period of time), the liquid crystals can develop a tendency to stay in one position.

  9. Lithium-ion battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium-ion_battery

    A lithium-ion or Li-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery that uses the reversible intercalation of Li + ions into electronically conducting solids to store energy. In comparison with other commercial rechargeable batteries, Li-ion batteries are characterized by higher specific energy, higher energy density, higher energy efficiency, a longer cycle life, and a longer calendar life.
