[quote author=iscom post=128204022][/quote]Hello bro!
I want a good power bank between 40kmah - 60kmah with the following in mind as I'm much familiar with brands like Anker, Tribit, Essager...
-Great value for money
-Durability, great quality
-Ability to be able to charge fast as i don't want to spend a whole day recharging one, lol (input power of 30watts or above is ok if its feasible)

@Jboixxx said your profound knowledge regarding power banks will help a lot

What are your best suggestions regarding the above, your help in narrowing down the best for me is most welcome

Thanks in advance bro!

[color=#0000ff] Greetings, boss.

With my limited knowledge, not sure Aukey, Anker or even Baseus have power banks of ≥40kmAh with ≥30w I/O power rating. I think, hight capacity and high power input are not mutual. It's either you get large capacity with reduced input or low capacity with high I/O. If they ever do, it'd be damn expensive.

Baseus for example, has 40kmAh PB but maxed out at 18w input and 22.5w output, their only PBs that I know supports ≥30w I/O are some of the Adaman series but has lower capacity (prolly max out at 30,000mAh). Their 65w output and 60w input powerbanks are also limited to 30,000mAh. Mi Pro 30,000mAh of Xiaomi maxed out at 24w input.

I've seen ROMOSS ≥40kmAh that supports 65w Output but I don't know their input ratings and importantly, if they've improved on their product quality and reliability. Movespeed is another brand but seems to follow the "large capacity low input" and vice versa principle.

Again, this is limited to my knowledge (what I've seen, sold or read). I for recommend power station but that could be like using an hammer to kill an ant! Lol.

You can ask my oga Iscom, he may be able to shed more light on this. [/color]
Thanks a lot bro for this wonderful detailed explanation, i appreciate, power stations are nice but they are above my budget for now, i can't find Baseus or Anker in my location, i think i might settle for Romoss or Movespeed (if available) since Romoss is available near me a lot but you made mention of quality & reliability issues, well i can settle almost for anything now as power is a real issue in my area, in your opinion if i can manage to see Movespeed, is it better than Romoss in terms of durability, value for money, good quality etc?

Thanks once more bro!

Hello bro, i know this is quite an old post, but if you come across this, i need your help

I'm a fan of good top quality chinese products, i have used & still using products like Anker, Tribit, Toocki, essager, baseus, soundcore, tribit etc & i very much like their value for money, great quality etc, however i want to buy a great power bank with great value for money, great quality, durability....but it seems a great hassle cos there are just too many brands out there that I'm kinda getting a bit confused on narrowing down the best through my research plus i heard importing from outside 9ja is a No No with much great risk

I want a powerbank of around 40k mah - 60k mah with at least 30 watts input or above for charging, great value for money, durability, great quality among other things

In your wealth of knowledge, which one(s) do you suggest i go for?

Thanks!

Who noticed that buying stuffs locally in Nigeria is cheaper than buying on Aliexpress?
It seems so because those items were bought long ago when exchange rate wasn't up to what it is now, simply put it that you're buying old stock at a fair price compared to what the exchange rate is now

I'll share my experience around December 2023 so you'll understand my point well, i went to buy a particular product, they told me the current price is #205,000, i shock because my budget for it was between #150,000 to #160,000 highest, they said its new stock & that's the final price for it, i wanted to leave when one of the sales rep called me back & said they have one of the old products that was bought in 2022 & wasn't sold & if i'm convinced to buy it, the price according to how they bought it is #140,500 final price, i decided to buy that old one even with the risk associated with it such as depleted battery & guess what? It was Ok after testing it

My point is any new stock will always be sold with how its bought & will be damn expensive, if you're lucky enough to buy old stocks at still what is considered a fair price, good for you but don't expect such on new products such as 2024 new phones etc, even the price of the cheapest ones will shock you

[quote author=cbrezy post=127103668]I wished I had seen your message on time, so I still visited the NIPOST headquarter in Awka and I met the man in charge of the deliveries I showed him that email screenshot attached on my previous so he said that they haven't gotten the package that's the email simply means they've packaged it for Awka but hasn't landed yet that they even last got their last package since 3rd of November, 2023 that this my package might come at the end of this month of unfailingly the first week of December....

So bros my main address on the package is "Onitsha" so now I'm not in Onitsha because of some school I'm in a town close to Awka which I explained to the man from NIPOST headquarters Awka and he gave me his number and asked me to text him my name, phone number, email and the address I used for the shipping, so I haven't don't that because I feel I might lose my package from him is this safe to do because he planned on letting me know when it arrives to them instead of waiting for it to be shipped to onitsha which is far from Awka so I wanna hear your opinion on this so I can text the informations to him.


Onitsha is likely to be received via Post Office along Old Market road near Main Market Onitsha, as to giving the man the details he requested which are actually needed to identify your package, its upto you whether you can trust him to do that for you or not, its a personal decision

My personal opinion?

Leave everything & wait till you're called which will most likely be from PO in old mrkt road, Onitsha, if you're not available, send someone like good friend, close relative, siblings...anyone you can trust residing in/near Onitsha to help you collect, some of my packages were collected on my behalf when i wasn't around in Onitsha, if no message or call is recieved from Post Office after around 65 days from the day your order shipped from Aliexpress which will be counting through your 'track order' on Aliexpress, open dispute before time runs out, just relax & carry out your day to day activities & remove your mind from it

I was once in your shoes sometime this year & the likes of Jboixxx, Olamak1....help calm me down & you should definitely know that NIPOST is mostly slow

Nipost just called me to come along with N400 to pick up my delivery. Is that how they roll nationwide?
Yes, those are handling fee depending on the weight of package which can range from but not limited to around #200 - #1000

Chaii nwanne nka bu Ife mwute, mine is that I made 2 order an angle P20i Earbud and the silicon case so I got the silicon case in 19days from AliExpress but the Earbud itself was processed via PostNL (Netherlands) which is now in Nigeria but no update yet and from the tracking I was told to contact my local post office which is NIPOST so I emailed them with my tracking code and they told me my item was shipped to their headquarter in Awka which I visited via Google map and that was last week Saturday but they don't work on Saturdays the security man told me to check on Tuesday you know Mondays are for Sit-at-home, so I'll check there tomorrow even though I'll waste money and time I don't wanna regret buying this from AliExpress and also NIPOST are very slow and lazy because this item got to them since 11th November, 2023..
A word of advise?
Quit wasting your money & time visiting their office, they'll call you when your item is ready for pick up & tell you which particular office of theirs you'll come for pick up, get small change for hand for handling fee ranging from around #200 - #1000k


Another word of advise?

Whenever you have any of your good(s) coming through NIPOST, always comot your mind & wait till they call you for pick up, but if no call for pick up after like 65 days, open dispute

[color=#0000ff] Notable gadget store(s)? Truly , I've got no idea. I only noticed Anker always give discounts on notable promotional days; they're not like other stores that hike prices a week to promotional days.

Once read somewhere that a particular AliExpress promotion requires stores to keep their original prices for a period of time before they can be eligible to participate, that way, real discounts can be enjoyed.

2. I don't know cuz days ain't sacrosanct. Anker just do promo randomly. Also, like Olamak1 said earlier, if one knows his way, he'll get good deals.
One thing is certain, I don't deal on AliExpress a week to any of their promo periods except something I'm familiar with the price. [/color]
Well said bro, so in other words, one has to check frequently & track some products he/she has interest in

"if one knows his way, he'll get good deals"

This up here is exactly what i'll want to know very well, the tricks etc, i do not know the way, i'll like to sabi the way well with time

[color=#0000ff] Of all stores, I know Anker is always true to their words on promotion periods, discounts go surely de.

One thing that some peeps need to know is, there are days you'd get good deals than 11.11 days, Black Friday's or Cyber Mondays.

This deal you're referencing, that period, theyr sold Motion+ for 42, P3 and Q30 for 34 and 33 respectively. You can't get that deal on any promotional day except Anker is giving discounts during those periods and most times, it's user specific just like this deal you had. Also, that deal was 1/customer. [/color]
This is a real eye opener!

I have some questions pertaining this
1, "Anker is always true to their words on promotion periods, discounts go surely de"

Which other notable gadget stores do these, always true to their words & better discounts


2, "One thing that some peeps need to know is, there are days you'd get good deals than 11.11 days, Black Friday's or Cyber Mondays"

I'll like to keep track of days like this when one can get the cheapest deal better than promotional days throughout the year if possible

Getting Soundcore life Q30 for $33? That's one of the sickest deals i've heard about, its unbelievable but yet possible from your testimony, i'll love that kinda offer & more

[color=#0000ff]I couldn't agree more.

Klasha knew what they're doing by disabling card funding. They waited till Naira depreciated again before activating it.

Truth it, no one should expect any magic for now cuz no matter what govt does at this time, it won't improve the Naira value within weeks except if they keep pumping $ into the market (senseless move). [/color]
Exactly!
Pumping $ into the market to reduce inflation is where the main problem lies

No be when you sell your local commodities & get the $ equivalent (export), dollar go dy in circulation more

No power, security, good roads, loans etc to encourage more production, even when you try on your own to rise above mediocrity, the government go so frustrate you, you go tire, see even middle age guys are planning to japa as it stands now in 9ja, if we can tell ourselves the truth & forget tribal, religious sentiments aside, we can clearly see we ain't going anywhere so far so good

I just can't come to terms with the fact that US dollar has again risen astronomically against the naira in just a couple of hours. About this time last week, we all had a sigh of relieve that at least one could get 1 dollar for ₦950. Unfortunately, that joy has become short-lived. As at now, 1 dollar in the black market is ₦1,100 +

This country, eh!
I suspected as much since nothing tangible is been effected to cushion the high demand of dollar, encourage production & substitute for a lot for the benefit of a common man, that's why i'm not keeping my hopes high when it comes to anything 9ja, prepare for the worst & still pray for the best, no wonder Klasha & other Fintechs no gree their card funding to work for some days now

Most Nigerians lack integrity & are mostly dishonest lots, yet want a better 9ja

Nigeria is so unpredictable & highly volatile, i pray naira keeps gaining value & maybe upto #700/$ b4 January, maybe i'm getting my hopes too high?

Around October - November 2007, 2016, 2020, 2022, this same scenario played out but i don't know what happened after, maybe those who are good with these kinda analysis should tell us the possible outcome from now to February next yr, let's know how to run our parol, although nothing is that accurate anyways, Fintechs are just fooling themselves, you can withdraw at that their scam rate but can't fund your dollar card right now that its around #950+/$

I remember when Aliexpress introduced choice products, I was curious to know the secrets behind those products, particularly after comparing their prices with that of sames products sold by the brand owners. At that point, I found out that buying a Choice product is risky

[color=#0000ff]You can send it via NIPOST but does it worth it? You should answer that question 1st cuz the last time I enquired about such, minimum charge was 9k.
2. If it is not a free return item, AliExpress may not refund your shipping fee for the return.
3. Tracking system of NIPOST hasn't been live, so, if you ship, tracking number may not be trackable. If not trackable, you're wasting your resources.
4. If trackable, it still won't reach AliExpress within the timeline. I know NIPOST for this.
5. My advice, if your item is not expensive, let go and count your losses. [/color]

[color=#0000ff]Olamak1 warned that peeps should be weary of Choice items cuz NO REFUND without return.

Aside that, claiming a refund now is not as easy as it were before due to the available categories for refund reasons. Your claim must be in conformity with the reason category. If you choose Product flaw and you provided them with evidence that shows Poor quality, you'll lose your Refund request.

If you're buying Choice, be ready![/color]
Thanks for your clarification
What's the way forward now since i have only 2 weeks to send it back through NIPOST & provide the tracking number for them

I reside in Anambra, i normally collect my NIPOST package through Onitsha NIPOST, can this package be sent back using NIPOST & tracking number provided by them before 2 weeks elapse OR can i request from Aliexpress to send back using SpeedAF?(is it possible ?)

I received a choice item($47.6), during testing i realised a little abnormally, i tried contacting the seller but has only been replied by bots, i decided to go for a refund because my 15 days was almost running out, Aliexpress asked for proof, i sent it, i recieved a reply from them that the proof (pics & vids) wasn't strong enough & ruled that i return the item via Post Office, something i recieved via SpeedAF, why not SpeedAF to return, this is the very first time i'm going through this & i have about 2 weeks only to provide the return tracking number & other necessary things & procedures they stated Or they'll return the money to the seller

Has anyone returned anything through post office? If any i need a guide on how to do this as i know our usual NIPOST & their slow ways, nawa o!
