13. Q15 battery, battery life and power supply related
Battery
Q15 has a built-in high-performance lithium polymer battery with a capacity of 5500mAh.
Battery life
Battery life under AAC encoding format high gain is about 8 hours and 40 minutes (4.4mm output)
What is the charging logic of the two charging ports of Q15's "USB" and "POWER IN" interfaces?
-
Turn the "DESKTOP MODE" switch to ON, and both USB ports will not charge at this time.
-
Turn the "DESKTOP MODE" switch to OFF and charge the battery as long as there is USB plugged into the "POWER IN" interface.
-
Whether USB charging is controlled by the "PHONE MODE" mobile phone mode switch
-
When two USBs exist at the same time, the USB plugged into the "POWER IN" interface is used first for charging.
-
When the machine shuts down due to low power, no matter which state the switch is in, as long as the USB is plugged in, the battery will be charged.
How to judge the charging status of Q15?
Check the status bar battery icon:
-
When the display is white, it means it is not charging.
-
When green, it is normal charging.
-
When it’s blue, it means fast charging.
-
Fully charged color is consistent with charging status
-
When the battery power is low, it is red
What kind of adapter should I use?
Both PD (9V) and QC3.0 will be recognized as fast charge.
-
Q15 supports fast charging. The USB interface supports PD 9V fast charging (QC fast charging is not supported). It is recommended to use PD 20W and above fast charging, which takes about 4 hours to fully charge. The "POWER IN" interface supports PD fast charging and QC3.0 fast charging.
-
A general 5V2A charger can also charge the Q15, but it will not trigger fast charging and is not guaranteed to be fully compatible. The charging time will be relatively long.
Can the adapter be plugged into the machine all the time? Will it affect battery life?
Yes, in order to take advantage of the "DESKTOP MODE" desktop mode and protect the battery during long-term operation in desktop mode, the Q15 cannot charge the battery when the "DESKTOP MODE" switch is turned to ON, and it does not consume power at this time. If you really need to charge the battery, you need to switch the "DESKTOP MODE" mode switch to OFF.
In desktop mode, when the switch is ON, the battery is "isolated", so there is no need to worry about damaging the battery.
When using DC power supply, can the Super Big Ear be enabled and charged at the same time?
No, the super big ear mode can be activated only when the "DESKTOP MODE" switch is set to "ON".
If you charge the battery when using DC power supply, please turn the "DESKTOP MODE" switch at the bottom to the "OFF" position to charge. At this time, charging is not controlled by the "PHONE MODE switch, and super big ears cannot be used.
