    I can answer you: -What Battery Bank Should You Buy? Any you like From official Company with bigger mAh bigger mAh = bigger energy official, becouse No names Chinas batteries - Lies about mAh sometime in 5-10 times For Phones, Tablet its 5V and 0.5A - because in 90% cases they(Phones) cant drain more (except some exclusive features, Like USB 3 - it can deliver more power but, do you’re phone support that?) In many Cases 2A and 4A on power bank is align to sum of A for all ports. So if you have 1 port given 2A - you can charge 4 devices (Beware using all charging port - simple don’t plug 4-10 devices in 1 power bank) And power banks with 12-24V is for Netbooks and Laptops

    Western cultures rising resistance towards jokes such as these and the actions people have been known to take in response to the people making them means we need that kind of humor more than ever. Humor has an uncanny power to get peoples attention and possibly inform you about another way of thinking. Trying to ban things like rape jokes is not only a gravely unethical assault on liberty, its actually making the situation worse by silencing people who are trying to use a very real method of dealing with rape. On top of that, letting words of a stranger trigger you(not you) into screaming for the offender's silence is far beyond child-like and into the realm of psychopathy.

    although you are correct, mWh is a unit of energy and is converted into to joules by a simple multiplication. As we are dealing with a constant 5 V from USB charging, multiplying the mAh by 5 V will give you mWh. So in this case I think it's okay to call mAh a unit of energy as the only thing you need to change it to one are constant.

    Most of these power banks use 18650 cells, these are around the size of a roll of quarters / 3quids worth of 10p. They also tend to be around 2000mah. If you see a battery thats only 1 cell ish in size and says its higher (say 500+mah) then its bullshit. Spend the extra and get a 2cell unit, rather than a smaller one made of lies.

    You are aware that there are high quality 18650 cells with upto around 3500mAh of capacity right? Yes they max out at around 5A continuous but thats still plenty for a USB charger. Ive seen single cell 18650 portable chargers that ive measured at around 2800mAh which is pretty good, being labeled at 3000mAh. I also have a Aukey 10,000mAh Quick Charge which has 4 18650's in it and it has a capacity of only ~8500mAh, which im ok with, but still could potentially be upto 14,000mAh using 3500mAh cells. Or like @L3G1T BMX said just get a empty shell with a USB output that holds however many cells, and put your own 18650's in it.

    mWh is a far better unit to use here as there's always manufacturers that are going to state the (exagge)rated mAh of the battery cells themselves, which can be at a different volts so using mWh avoids any confusion. And let's be clear, 100Wh or 20000mAh rated at 5V output is the absolute maximum you will find as that is the legal limit for a lithium based battery. Anymore than that, and you can bet the rating is false.

    It's simple just use this formula to calculate how much watt that your charger/powerbank produce watt=ampere × volt just see that how much volt and ampere your charger has and then multiply it to find watt Also regular devices need 2 ampere

    The more mAh your battery bank has, the more often you can charge your phone: The 2.4 A, the maximum output current, determine how fast you can charge your device. Generally, if you have an output current of 2 A per plug, you should be good. mAh only determine the capacity, not the charging rate! Also the is a limit on how much A you can use to charge your device, otherwise you might just destroy it.

  • @ChrisD4335

    The 2 amp ones charge faster but the1amp ones have the benefit of keeping your phone powered wile plugged in for longer. This is because when you rapidly discharge a battery to rapidly charge a differint battery more of the energy is wasted, burned off as heat or other inefficiency. 1amp is my preference for this reason.
