Portable Charger, USB-C Power Bank 20000mAh with Pop it Fidget Protective Case, Ultra-Compact Battery Pack with LED Indicator for iPhone,Android,Samsung and More

He raved about it so much that I decided I couldn't ignore the passive-aggressive suggestions any longer and gave it to him. . . gladly. Of course, I had to go out and get a new one. br>br>There is a lot to like about this device; it combines three different devices that I normally use into one. The battery-operated handheld device I use a battery pack, solar charger, and Qi charger on a regular basis and can now replace them all with this one device; other great features include the PD (power delivery) USB-C port and the PD (power delivery) USB-C port. The battery has a massive 20,000 mAh capacity and has a USB QC3 charging port, as well as a built-in flashlight. Everything is well thought out and designed. br>br> out in front of the pack The ports have a dust cover, which is likely part of the IPX5 certification. The pack has a loop (with carabiner) for attaching it to a backpack, and it's all covered in a ruggedized, easy-to-clean material. grip to the end br>br>I feel compelled to say something about battery capacity and solar power. rate of charge These battery packs are sometimes referred to as wattage packs. When everything else is measured in milliamps, this is difficult to quantify. So, here's how it works: This battery pack is most likely 74 watts: At 3 volts, 20,000 mAh is required. It takes 7 volts (the battery's voltage) to fill this 74 watt battery, which explains the 20,000 mAh rating (in my test, it took 17,330mAh to fill it). However, at the 5 volts required to charge other devices, that same 74 watt battery can only deliver 14,800 mAh (I got 13,177mAh out of it). This is just to give you an idea of how much charging capacity you can expect. br>br>In terms of solar charging, the solar panel that is attached to the battery pack is quite small. Is the battery going to get charged? You bet! Certainly, it will take a long time. The solar panel's current output is listed as 300mAh under ideal sunlight conditions in the specifications, and believe me when I say that even a slight angle offset makes a difference. So, in ideal circumstances, the solar panel would fully charge the battery in about 67 hours, while in less ideal circumstances, it would take about 15 hours. To charge a modern phone fully, it takes 20 hours of solar charging. Of course, in an emergency, you'll need less, but this should give you an idea of what to expect. br>br>BTW: If you use the USB-C cable, you will be able to connect your computer to To charge it, plug it into the C port with a sufficiently powerful power source. It will charge almost twice as fast as a regular microUSB cable with this power supply.

When I park at my company's parking lot, I place this solar power bank on my dashboard so that it can be charged by the sun. After about 8 hours, I have about 50% capacity, enough for me to charge my phone each night. My phone has access to free electricity. It's kind of cool to have, and it comes with a built-in flashlight in case of an emergency. I believe that everyone should purchase one for their vehicle; it may come in handy if their phone runs out of battery in the middle of nowhere.

Works as expected, wireless worked well through the case but at a slow speed. In overcast conditions, the solar panels appeared to be powerful enough to charge.

My phone charged fairly quickly when plugged in, but not as quickly when using wireless Qi (which is to be expected given that wireless uses a lower voltage, as stated in the manual). The case is tough, waterproof, and lightweight, with some cool features like a flashlight and USB C outlet. Oh, and there's also a compass keychain included. I also thought the fact that I could charge it with my Ott light was pretty cool.

It's a sizable battery pack! If you saw this 20k mah solar 18w pd bank on YouTube and thought to yourself, "it's not that big," throw that statement out the window because it's only a few centimeters away from being a god dam brick. My Samsung S10 is about 3 1/2 inches thick, and this powerbank is about 3 1/2 inches thick. If you can get past that, you'll enjoy the powerbank. br>br>If you can get past that, you'll enjoy the powerbank. It's adequate in terms of charging and device feel. It isn't perfect, but everything has a reason to exist.

I bought this charger with the intention of keeping my devices "plugged in" while I'm at the pool, and it turned out to be an excellent decision - I charge the device, carry it around with me (not just to the pool), and leave my phone on airplane mode. My iPad or other devices can be plugged in while charging wirelessly. The charger's solar panel keeps up and trickles charges the unit, giving me either a full day's worth of power or a quick boost whenever and wherever I need it. It charges itself while you're out and about and is always handy if you attach it to your backpack. To be completely honest, The solar component is barely above a trickle charge, and charging the unit solely with solar takes longer. I definitely recommend the Qi charger.

The title pretty much sums it up; solar charging appears to be a gimmick in general. 10000mAh is a huge battery, and Qi works flawlessly. br>br>I adore the concept of a Qi charging power bank, and the addition of a solar component sealed the deal for me. I brought this device to a conference where I knew I'd need my phone but didn't want to be tethered to an outlet between sessions. The wireless charging is fantastic, and it kept my phone (an old Note 5) charged all day while I was using it frequently. Normally, I'll charge it up for two hours. In these circumstances, three times a day is recommended. br>br>As for solar charging, I left the charger (at about 1/2 charge) on my window sill in the sun for nearly a week, despite the fact that I don't live in a particularly sunny part of the world. I ended up simply plugging it in to top it off because the solar charging had barely registered on the capacity. Perhaps the solar portion would be more effective at retaining the charge rather than recharging it. the power bank is being charged.
