### Battery Management

When a PC or charger is connected via USB power, the 5K does not use battery power but instead directly uses USB power to operate the system. When used as a USB DAC, the device does not use the battery but relies on USB power, which helps preserve battery life, ensures a fixed charging time, and provides lower heat generation.

{% hint style="info" %}
Some products from other manufacturers may use the battery even while charging, causing both charging and discharging to occur simultaneously. This can lead to overheating, a longer charge time, and reduced battery lifespan. Please keep this in mind.

### SAFETY WARNING

{% hint style="danger" %}
Always remember that heat is the greatest enemy of LiPo batteries.&#x20;

The hotter the battery, the shorter its lifespan. Do not place the battery in high-temperature environments. Specifically, when using the 5K with a car's Aux-In, do not leave it inside the car. When parked under the sun, the interior temperature can rise significantly, reaching nearly 120-160°F (49-71°C). This can not only shorten the battery lifespan but also expose it to a serious fire risk.&#x20;

Rechargeable lithium polymer batteries can be hazardous if misused, leading to serious fire hazards, severe injuries, and property damage.
