Power Banks are great devices, as it provides for an alternative and backup for our smart device from running down.
It keeps our phone all day round and never let's us miss out an important assignment and business meetings.
But with the array of power bank been displayed in the opened markets, their are some inferior ones that are nothing to write home about.
Below are the specifics to checkout when planning to buy a power bank:
>>> Check the battery capacity and ratings of your phone:
This is actually the first thing you should know before ordering for a Power Bank. It is vital to know the capacity of your battery. Your phone battery is rated on mAh (mili Amp per hour) and the output voltage required for charging most mobile phones including smartphones is within 3.5V (Volts) to 5.0V (Volts). Just check the backside of your mobile phone battery right now and see the ratings on your battery. It is on this base that you will make a better choice for the Power Bank capacity you should go for.
>>> Check the Power Bank ratings/configurations and capacity:
I know by now you have known your phone battery's rating. If your phone battery is rated more than 3,000mA, then you should go for power banks that are rated 10,000mAh and above for you to be able to get at least two full charges when your phone completely runs down. If you go for let's say Power Bank within the range of 2000mAh and 8000mAh, you will not get one complete full charge at times. I hope you get the trick? The lower the mAh rating of a Power Bank, the lower the charging strength and longevity. But if your phone's battery rating is below 3000mAh, a 5000mAh Power Bank should be okay for you. However if you want it to last longer, you should go for the once rated much higher.
>>> Check the brand:
Don't make the wrong choice that you will eventually regret later. There are thousands of different Power Banks in the market and online stores. They sell different kinds of power banks both the good ones and the not so good ones. Go for know brands like Samsung power banks, injoo power banks, LG power banks and other notable brands and make sure you don't buy from huckers and people that you don't really know their market identity. Go to known online stores like jumia. Don't forget to check the ratings and configuration before placing an order. Meanwhile, if you can't buy in from online stores, there are credible offline stores in your state that you can enter and buy your original power banks.
>>> Don't Buy Extremely Cheap Power Banks:
Getting a cheap power bank is not bad but when it is extremely cheap, my dear think twice. Some of the power banks in the market are refurbished ones made of inferior electronic materials.
>>> Check out for number of USB charging Ports
In some power banks, there are more than one USB port for connecting more than one device for charging simultaneously. Though it's usually seen in power banks with higher rating. If you can get it, it will be a bonus and advantage as you can easily connect two phones or a phone and probably your mp3 player to be changing at the same time.
>>> Check out for indicators and others
Charging indicators are really important as it gives you the visual understanding of how your power bank is charging and when it gets fully charged. Avoid buying the one with now LED indicatorsindicators. There are even ones that has small screen that shows how many hours remaining for your power bank to get full chard or go down. Some have torchlight and some brands even integrated an fm radio receiver in their power banks. So the choice is yours but while choosing, remember to note that quality is your first priority.
>> Buy power banks that has UL certification.
>> Finally, Before Stepping Out of The Store, Test Your New Power Bank to examined it functions.
How to use and maintain a power bank
