Will a Phone Get Damaged If Left in a Hot Car?
1 Answers
Leaving a phone in a car during summer may cause it to explode. Here are the details: 1. Exposing the phone to sunlight: If the phone is exposed to direct sunlight at high temperatures, it may explode. The phone contains a battery, and prolonged exposure to sunlight can lead to an explosion. Even if it doesn't explode, it can cause significant damage to the battery. Place the phone in a shaded area to avoid direct sunlight. If the phone overheats, you can place it near the air conditioning vent to cool it down quickly and prevent battery damage. 2. Items to avoid leaving in the car during summer: Lighters: Small and easy to forget, yet highly dangerous. They contain liquid butane, and exposure to sunlight increases internal pressure, leading to explosions. Bottled water: Stored in a sun-exposed car for a certain period, it can release harmful substances. Continued consumption may not quench thirst but can harm health and cause discomfort. Glasses: Especially reading glasses, as their convex lenses can focus light, potentially causing a fire. Perfume (in glass bottles): Perfume evaporation produces flammable gases, with a critical packaging point of 49 degrees. Tests show that in an unshaded car at noon in summer, temperatures can reach 65 degrees in 15 minutes, easily causing an explosion. Electronic devices: Phones exposed to sunlight may develop mechanical issues, and chargers can explode if overheated from prolonged exposure.
