I own several units of nearly identical wireless mini keyboards featuring back-light. They are fairly inexpensive and lack distinct branding, as many Chinese manufacturers seem to replicate the design with minimal modifications. These keyboards tend to fail prematurely for my preferences: even with 1020 mAh batteries, they often last only a day under intense use. I conducted an extensive search and eventually purchased two units with 1400 mAh batteries. The performance gap was remarkable—one, fully factory-charged, lasted 14 days, whereas the other, used under heavier strain, lasted just 11 days. After recharging them using a high-end PC power supply and a USB micro cable, I was still unsatisfied. Under extreme conditions, both lasted only 3 and 5 days respectively. My concern is whether these budget models have faulty charging systems. If I were to invest in a professional BL-5C charging device, could it enhance the lifespan of my batteries?

Affordable batteries, inadequate charging systems, etc., etc.
Pay low prices for bad goods, receive substandard items.

BL-5C chargers are inexpensive. Try one and see what you think.

It seems in my country very few people sell them, and I don't wish to purchase a low-quality or weak one.
