Quick Tip #2 Mistakes you should avoid when you buy a power bank.

Battery capacity of smartphones is the most important thing while buying a smartphone. Even the best flagships will not offer an average usage of more than a day or two; there comes the need of power banks. Here are top 3 mistakes you should avoid when you buy a power bank.

• Capacity:

Look for something around 5000 to 6000 mAh if you are looking to charge your phone but if you are looking to charge multiple devices, go for a bigger capacity or multiple ports as the use maybe. I would suggest buy a two port power bank with atleast a capacity of 10000 mAh power bank, that should suffice for all your average daily needs.

• What is wrong with saving a little money, right?

We make a mistake of buying very cheap power banks without considering anything else. Just because, we need to save money, we should not put the safety on the line, considering power banks are batteries themselves and can destroy your phone itself. Putting in some extra money at the very start is better than regretting later. Next time you buy a power bank, make sure that you are considering :

1. Underwriters Laboratory (UL) certification
2. Short circuit protection
3. Temperature protection
4. Over-charging protection

• Portability:

The very reason of having a power bank in the first place. Make sure that it is slim and light so that it is easy to carry. Charge it overnight and you are good to last a full-day use.


There is no power bank that can give you an efficiency of 100% or give you unlimited charge but buying smartly is in our hand, keep the tips in mind and you are good to go. If the article was helpful, do leave your feedback below, share the article.
