Best Power Bank I’ve ever used
I bought this as a gift for my partner a year and a half ago. The power bank is well made and has held up to lots of punishment being thrown around in my partner’s handbag. The product is pretty heavy, but it is to be expected for its size and capacity.
It has a lot of charge capacity, although I’m not 100% sure it meets the quoted 20,000 mAh, in our experience when new it seemed to charge an iPhone 7 about 5 times (which suggests 10,000 mAh) this is completely anecdotal and is by far the best capacity power bank we have used and we are definitely not disappointed with this, especially for the money. It is also worth noting that it does take a VERY long time to fully charge the power bank, as it is such a large capacity, it takes up to 24 hours to reach full using a standard lightning charging cable and apple USB adapter connected to a wall outlet. Over time the capacity has decreased as you would expect from any rechargeable battery, but over a year later and not particularly taking great care of the product and its charging cycles we can still get 2-3 full iPhone charges from the power bank.
The single best feature of this power bank over other we have used in the past is the ability to charge lightning cable, it means that for iPhone users you can take a single cable with you on trips to charge the power bank and then you can use the same cable to charge your phone from the power bank.
Overall I am very happy with this power bank and if our current one dies I will happily purchase a replacement.
