We every day receive questions on the power banks: that how do they work or how can we sue them in the best way. So, today, we wanted to make this special blog explaining some facts about the power banks that you might not have known.
What is meant by the power bank capacity?
Power banks are available in different sizes and the mAh tells us the total of the capacity of the battery. In short, the more power the power bank contains the larger the battery energy would be. For example, the battery of the iPhone 6 is around 2915mAh so if you have to fully charge it, you should get a power bank that has a mAh more than this phone’s capacity.
What is the lifetime of the power bank?
The batteries with the Lithium-ion and the Lithium-polymer are used in the power banks by the power bank manufacturer and the mobile phones would eventually lose their power over time (this depends on the charging cycle, 200 up to 1000, and the battery cell quality and the chemical composition). The bigger the battery is the lesser charging cycles it would take and the longer it would take to charge, unless it is a faster charger.
Why do some power banks take too long to charge?
Many of the power banks are charged by the USB, and depending on the capacity of the power bank, it can take a power bank up to 40 hours to fully charge (a 20,000mAh power bank). For faster charging, you should get a power bank that has an input of a higher voltage than 5V which would require it to charge directly from the wall socket.
What is the fastest way to charge my phone and my power bank’s energy?
Some of the phones may automatically download their updates and consume more of the power while connected to the socket or the charger. If you want to save the energy when charging from the power bank, keeping the phone the flight mode is a great idea to save the energy of the power bank, and only use the basic features of the mobile phone.
