Recommendations to Avoid Damaging Your Powerbank: Extend Its Lifespan

Powerbanks, like any other tech gadget, can have their lifespan shortened if not properly cared for. That’s why we’re providing the following tips:

Firstly, it’s important to avoid high temperatures. This means try not to place it in very hot locations (nor in damp areas), and also avoid direct sunlight (except for solar-powered models, of course).

Next, do not let it run out of battery completely before recharging. The belief that a device should only be charged from 0% is incorrect, as this puts extra strain on the battery. Ideally, you should recharge it when it reaches around 25%.

Another recommendation is actually the opposite: don’t overcharge the powerbank. Once it reaches 100%, unplug it as soon as possible.

Lastly, always use the recommended cable and charger for your device. Using a cable or charger that’s not intended for your model could shorten its lifespan by not meeting the proper specifications.

Choose High-Powered Personalised Power Banks for Your Employees

If you’re gifting a power bank to your team, whether for work or personal use, we recommend choosing a model with a decent power capacity, at least 10,000 mAh.

Keep in mind that smartphones and tablets typically have batteries around 5,000 mAh, and laptops have even higher capacities. Therefore, when attending meetings outside the office, it’s a good idea to have a powerbank capable of meeting any energy needs.

Special Features of Some of Our Models

Want to impress with a fully functional and stylish design? Choose one with one or more of the following features:

• Wireless or Magnetic Charging: Say goodbye to cables. Simply place your device (if compatible) on the gadget to charge its battery.
• Recycled Materials: Technology doesn’t have to be at odds with sustainability. If your company is eco-friendly, you can opt for designs with cases made from recycled materials.
• Fast Charging: For those who don’t have time to leave their devices plugged in for long. A quick solution that’s very practical.
• Solar Charging: Although no models charge their batteries entirely via the solar panel, it provides a more sustainable boost to ensure the powerbank doesn’t run out of energy.

How Many Times Can I Charge My Smartphone with a Power Bank?

This will depend on the milliampere-hour (mAh) capacity of both the powerbank and the smartphone.

This capacity indicates how many charge cycles the device can complete. However, it’s important to note that the actual capacity is always slightly less than the nominal figure.

This is because the internal voltage of the powerbank is 3.7V, while the USB port it connects to is 5V. Therefore, energy is lost during the conversion process.

So, if your powerbank has a capacity of 10,000 mAh and your phone’s battery is 5,000 mAh, you shouldn’t expect to get two full charge cycles due to this energy loss.

Simultaneous Charging: Choose a Versatile Powerbank

Several of our models come with multiple charging ports, whether through USB-A, USB-C, or microUSB.

This feature is especially useful when there are multiple devices to charge at once, such as charging multiple phones simultaneously, or a phone and a tablet.

You’ll find that models with over 10,000 mAh often include this functionality. Of course, the ideal option is to choose a model with the highest possible capacity to provide the best performance.
