Just in case you missed it, he asked me this because I told him that nobody refers to powering a device without batteries as "charging" it.

are you talking about plugging something in that isn't rechargeable just to power it? like a blender or something? or are you talking about plugging something in that IS rechargeable... like a switch, or a 3ds?

That isnt powering a device without batteries

When somebody says theyre charging something it usually means they are powering up their battery or their phone or their controller or something like that. Im still not even really sure what youre referring to.

At least in America thats what it is anyway. In England its probably called snoodling or something. May I use your cord to snoodle my phone?

He said that if you plug in a wireless 360 controller all it does is "charge" the device. I pointed out how I thought that was misleading, because the cord can make the controller work with no batteries at all.

The presence of electrical charges was never in question. But you're just being super literal. In common usage, nobody says "charge" like that.

To be fair, certain devices with capacitors may need to "charge" the capacitors, and those aren't batteries.



Chewster posted...
He said that if you plug in a wireless 360 controller all it does is "charge" the device. I pointed out how I thought that was misleading, because the cord can make the controller work with no batteries at all.

It's arguable both statements are correct. Because with batteries the cord is certainly charging the battery, but if it can work even without a battery via cord, then it implies the device can also use power directly (unlike some electronic devices, where the battery is absolutely necessary, because the cord solely charges the battery).

But if a battery is present, it's possible that the default state is to run off the battery regardless, and the incoming charge is only used to continually recharge the battery to full even while the device uses it (ie, how a lot of electronics work, and why certain things require batteries).

Yeah but you aren't right. Nobody refers to it as that regardless of whether or not the device is "being charged." "You" are not charging it. It is internally charging itself by way of a power supply. As someone who works in electrical engineering you are flat out incorrect
