Most of us will leave the charger connected to the mobile phones even though they’ve got fully charged. Especially you’re the one who always leaves your cellphone to charge through the night. So, when the phones get fully charged, the charger will still continue drawing power, which is actually a big waste of electricity.
AT&T has announced their ZERO charger, which is an ultra green charger that stops drawing electricity once the mobile phone is fully charged. This ensures no vampire power drawn and no wastage of electricity, so you can leave your charger plugged in when the cellphone is fully charged. And some more it should help preserve the battery lifespan and no worry of overcharging that will kill the phone’s battery.
The AT&T ZERO charger works with all USB-chargeable mobile phones and it’s a completely green charger that also comes in a a recycled-cardboard container! It’ll be available sometime in May but the price hasn’t been announced yet.
