I'm finally forced into using a phone with a sealed battery, so I decided to do a little testing. The battery is 4,000 mAh, and using a Quick Charge capable charger will allow for up to 3,400 mA. That's technically lower than the 1C rate that most Li-ion batteries are able to handle, but I decided to also try a standard, non-quick charging, charger to see how battery temps are affected. The charge rate averages around 1,200-1,500 mA depending on what I'm doing on the phone. I noticed that allowed the battery to run about 10-15°F cooler during charging.
With quick charging, it runs about 107°F, which is fairly warm when it comes to risking long term damage. With standard charging, it's been 92-97°F, which is more protective against damage. Sure it takes a lot longer to charge, but I have access to a charger most of the time. If I do need a quick boost, I'll use the Quick Charge, but I mostly try to stick with basic charging now.
I'm curious if anyone else has gone this route now as well.
