The glue-filled charger is to put the chip and other electronic components into the shell, and then fix them together with special glue-filling materials to achieve waterproof and dustproof effects. The potting charger is to put the electrical components into the mold and use special materials to pot and encapsulate them to achieve similar effects.
Aspects to pay attention to when choosing
1. Use environment
First of all, the choice of charger should be determined according to the actual use environment. If it is used in a harsh environment, such as outdoors, deserts, oceans, etc., it is recommended to choose a potting charger, because it has better sealing and can effectively prevent electrical failures caused by environmental reasons.
2. Waterproof performance
Secondly, pay attention to the waterproof performance of the charger. Although the glue-filled charger itself also has a waterproof function, it is easy to break and crack because the glue-filling seal is not as tight as the potting seal. It is also easy to enter water when used in water, causing a short circuit. Therefore, if you need to charge in water, it is recommended to choose a potting charger with better waterproof performance.
3. Protection function
After that, you also need to pay attention to the protection function of the charger. Whether it is a glue-filled or potted charger, it should have overcurrent protection, overheat protection, overvoltage protection and other functions to ensure that the charger can better protect the battery.
In short, glue-filled and potted chargers have their own advantages and disadvantages. When choosing, you need to consider factors such as the use environment, waterproof performance and protection function in order to find a charger that suits you.
