Power bank is a peculiar Nigeria problem.
Please remember "No constant electricity no reelection".

Constant (as 24/7/365 for ALL Nigerians, not just band A!) is technically impossible. Check my other posts about this matter.

Buy original powerbanks that support Fast Charging/ Quick Charging.

there are so many fake "Oraimo" products in the market, be sure to get the original, my 27000 mAh Oraimo powerful bank charges my 5000mAh phone battery 5X and with some charges remaining, and I've been using it for 3+ years. No complaints.

Keep deceiving yourself.
Oraimo Power Bank I bought from their official website got swollen after one year. Meanwhile my itel power bank is still working fine for years despite it's small size

So which powerbank is the best.

derico:
So What Should You Do?
Before you buy your next power bank:
• Stop focusing only on mAh.
Pay attention to:
• Output efficiency.
• Build quality.
• Brand reliability.

What are the factors, ratings, numbers, identifiers to know and measure output efficiency?

Brand quality is a farce, except you buy from source.
Brand reliability is marketing.

Oraimo 20,000mAh failed me.
5000mAh battery, I can only charge fully two times...and that was in the early days of the charger.
Now it only charges full once.

Oraimo una fuckup

There are factors that affect power banks and can make them swollen whether fake or original.

Is Nigeria actually Nigeria

Or u no know say Naija get integrity problem

Nothing in nigeria is actually what it should be

1 liter and is not 1 liter in Nigeria

All plastic containers in the market today are labelled deceitfully.
1litre keg is actually 0.8 litre.
4litres keg is actually 3.5litres etc

In the case of power bank, it is deceitfully labelled also 20000mah may actually be 15000 mah.
Funny one is sound systems, an 100watts sound system will be relabelled as 10000watts.. grin

The standard organisation in Nigeria is not active.

This is the real answer

Most products made for our market are falsely advertised because who is going to test anyway?

Most of them are actually falsely labelled as per the ratings on the packs and Products ratings/specifications.

The Regulatory Agencies are not doing anything in that regards notably SON and the Consumer Protection Agency are in the same cahoot with SON

Many substandard Products are in the Market yesterday, today and will be tomorrow.

Another issue is Nigeria power generation is very low to ultimately power up voltages of some of these gargets to function at full or good capacity before you know it they'd drained, not even a generating set. I have some device I thought it's not functioning well again but when I traveled to another country and connected it to power it came alive and working normal again

Some of them are suffering from electric power deficiency in this country.

Great information for people to learn.

I knew this a long time.

A 10,000mah ankers power bank can outperform a 30,000 new age power bank.

Are you talking from experience

Re: Your 20,000mAh Power Bank Is Not Actually 20,000mAh. by fbabs(m): 2:57pm On Mar 23

Basicend:
The best power banks I have ever used are Anker 10,000 mAh and Redmi 20,000 mAh models.

I have tested a lot.

The battle is between the two brands in this segment. Long life and effecient output with both batteries.

Are you talking from experience?

It's worst than that.
The actual rating supposed to be 2000 MA. No regulator to con firm anyway, and these has a lot to do with developers.
50kg bag of rice sold in Nigerian market contain about 40kg of rice, about 2 custard measure have removed. Don't believe me, take a scale to the market and scale and find it out by your self.
The milk you drink in Nigeria contain no milk, but milk flavour, check the label and do milk test.
The drink you are proud of are fake, lucky you they contain alcohol.
Let alone sachet or bottle water.
I don't have time to list more

You understand Nigeria very well. Since I discovered it I have stopped buying many things from all this small small shop. I go to ShopRite, Roban and their equal.... Too much fake things in Nigerian markets

Even solar inverter, you see a 3KVA but it's not actually 3KVA when you engage it. I hate this idea because I almost fall in debt because of this

Buy the Itel 100,000 mah power go. It can be charged with a solar panel, uses only 10% to power my standing fan from going to bed to waking up. Powers my laptop too, and it costs a little above 100k.

Most people don't read manual before they use any appliance.
There are power banks you're required to use to 0% before you charge them, on your first purchase, and sometimes repeated 3 to 4 times before you charge.

Indiscriminate charging of power banks, even when they are near full capacity, is the main issue affecting power banks.
But you can't really blame people for their experiences with nija's erratic power supply.
