Inside a scam phone battery "conditioner" (Patreon)

What's inside a SCAM phone battery booster

This amazing device claims to increase the capacity of your phone's battery by conditioning it. While there are technologies that can improve the performance of some batteries, the lithium cell in your phone has its own dedicated charge control circuitry that will block any external attempt to interfere with it. I'm not aware of any system to restore capacity to an old lithium cell. You just have to accept that your phone will have a usable lifespan before you need a new battery or phone. The packaging suggests enforcing a daily routine of its use every single day, with a suggested noticeable difference after 2 months - just enough time for buyers remorse to pass. It also helpfully suggests saving important files from your phone and then doing a full reset/restore to its original brand new state. That does potentially have a battery life benefit, as it will clear out the remnants of unused or deleted apps (and malware) and potentially make your phone run faster and with lower standby current. The downside of a complete phone reset is that it takes a while to get it back to the way you like it. This unit could make a handy case for your own USB projects. If you feel you have a need for one of these, they are sold at a suitably low price on AliExpress:- https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007556720343.html It should cost less than £2.
