Most phones don't die because they're old.
They die because of how we charge them.

In this episode of Power Pod Live!, Bill Stevens breaks down the hidden power mistakes that slowly destroy battery health—and why "fast charging" isn't always fast or safe.

You'll learn:

• The quiet habits that shorten battery lifespan

• Why cheap cables cause long-term damage

• How to build a smarter, simpler power setup

• One easy change you can make today to protect your devices

This isn't about buying more gear.
It's about using better-matched power tools that actually work together.

🔋 Current Insight Tip:
If your phone feels warm while charging, unplug it for 10 minutes. That pause alone can significantly extend battery health.

In this episode of Power Pod Live!, we break down the real reasons chargers and cables stop working—and it's probably not what you think.

Most people blame fast charging, cheap cables, or bad luck. The truth is far more practical—and far more fixable.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• The hidden stress points that quietly destroy charging cables long before they stop working

• Why fast charging isn't the villain, and what actually causes heat and battery wear

• How to build a "set-and-forget" power setup that works reliably at home, at work, and on the go

• The single weakest point in almost every charging setup—and how to reinforce it

We also share this episode's Current Insight, a simple but powerful observation that explains why most charging problems happen at the connector—not the outlet.

If you're tired of unreliable charging, overheating adapters, and cables that only work "at a certain angle," this episode will completely change how you think about power.
