Why burning test is so important for a Power Adapter?

In simple terms, the burning test means that the power adapter is fully loaded for a period of time to work to see what problems the power adapter will have. Of course, someone will ask, how long is a period of time? One day? Two days? Generally, it is very conventional that it must be aged for at least several hours, of course, this time can be considered according to the pursuit of the quality of this power adapter and the cost.

In a more general understanding, the burning test is actually an extremely cruel and destructive test, because only by doing this, the products that flow to the client are excellent products, and the good Power Adapter manufacturer  will only sell these good products to the customers. In fact, this is the question I will explain next. Why do power adapters need to be done the burning test?

Many power adapter products on the market have not undergone aging tests. Why say that? The most important thing is that most of the power adapter products that flow out of the production line already have all their functions and can be used directly. However, if the aging test is not done, then many problems may occur in the early stage of power use. For example, short circuit, no voltage, no current, and even explosion are possible, but these problems can be completely avoided after the aging test. Of course, problems occur after using for one year or more, but it is the problem of the service life of the power supply, and there is no way to control it.

Of course, this problem cannot be said to be so absolute. Our analysis is only a theoretical result, because it does not rule out that you have bought a copycat product that has not been aging tested, but it is no problem to use it, maybe problems take a year or two to occur.

A final remind is that when everyone chooses a power adapter, you must find a professional and regular power adapter manufacturer who know well about how to test an AC adapter in a right way.
