USB Cable and Headphone care

I have always seen people being very careless about taking MicroUSB cable and Headphones! What eventually happens is that they end up reducing its life as it is not built to take on a beating and tight knots getting tossed around in your bags. Do buy a small plastic box and then then toss it anywhere you want...it will be safe! Plus you can also add a 'spring support' as I have described below.

Safe way to keep headphones:

Avoid keeping things with a magnetic field or powerful magnets near headphones.




Safe way to keep USB cable:

If the cable is bent and tied as it arrives in the box (some people say, "Always keep as it arrives in box" which may be a wrong notion) then after some days you will notice cracks in the rubber. Keep it curled instead.



Spring support

Hook one end of the spring to the cable and go on rotating it clockwise until it is completely curled around the wire...we now have added strength and rigidity to the joint...so it will be safe from tight bends.
