Is it safe to keep a USB drive plugged in the car for a long time?

It is safe to keep a USB drive plugged in the car for a long time. Here is some relevant information about USB drives: 1. USB drives do not affect the car: They will not cause harm to the vehicle. However, if left plugged in continuously, the USB drive remains in a powered state, and over a long period, it may burn out. Whether you unplug it or not makes little difference. This is because the USB interface is fixed to the circuit board as a whole, and normal plugging and unplugging have no impact (retractable USB drives simply have the circuit board placed on a movable base—only the base moves in and out, while the USB interface is fixed to the circuit board like a regular USB drive). 2. Remove the USB drive vertically: When unplugging, apply force vertically to remove it. Avoid shaking it side to side even if it feels tight (frequent lateral shaking can lead to poor contact in the USB port or damage to the USB drive's interface).

What Causes One Half of the Car Radiator to be Hot and the Other Half Cool?

It may be due to a damaged water pump or a stuck thermostat that fails to open. Here is the relevant introduction: Radiator: The radiator is part of the car's cooling system. In the engine's water cooling system, the radiator consists of three parts: the inlet chamber, the outlet chamber, the main plate, and the radiator core. The coolant flows inside the radiator core, while air passes outside it. The hot coolant cools down by dissipating heat to the air, and the cold air warms up by absorbing the heat from the coolant. Thus, the radiator functions as a heat exchanger. Aging and Cracking: Over time, the hoses of the engine radiator can age and become prone to cracking, allowing water to easily enter the radiator. If a hose ruptures while driving, the high-temperature water sprayed out can form large clouds of steam escaping from under the engine hood. When this happens, immediately park the car in a safe location and take emergency measures to address the issue.

Can a Weak Car Battery Cause Poor Throttle Response?

A depleted battery will not affect the car's power, but it can impact driving. Extremely low battery levels may prevent the car from starting, so it is recommended to check and replace the battery promptly if issues are detected. Car Battery Maintenance Tips: Avoid Storing in a Depleted State: When the battery is undercharged, it is prone to sulfation. Lead sulfate crystals form on the electrode plates, blocking ion channels and leading to insufficient charging and reduced battery capacity. The longer the battery remains in a depleted state, the more severe the damage. If the battery is unused, it should be charged once a month to extend its lifespan. Regular Inspection: During use, if the driving range of an electric vehicle suddenly decreases by more than 10 kilometers in a short period, it may indicate issues such as broken connections, softened plates, or active material shedding in at least one battery cell. In such cases, promptly visit a professional battery maintenance facility for inspection, repair, or replacement.
