Power Bank Maintenance Guide
Nowadays, mobile phones have become an indispensable part of our daily life. The frequent use of mobile phones brings about the problem of shortages of battery power, so portable chargers are needed. When away from home, you can always use power banks for charging, which are absolutely necessary for going out and traveling. Power banks could be used 2 ~ 3 years commonly, and there are many pitfalls when people use and maintain power banks. The proper maintenance can prolong the service life of power banks. Below are four maintenance tips to properly use power banks:
1. Pay Attention to Waterproof and Moisture-Proof
When a power bank is accidentally falls into water or exposures to moist air, its electronic components and wires would be corroded. Thus, a power bank is best placed in a dry environment when not in use for a long time.
2. Beware of Rough Usage
When a portable charger is used, try to avoid throwing, knocking or falling off it. Rough use of a portable charger will destroy the internal circuit boards of it.3.
3. Proper Placement Environment
Do not put the power bank in places where the temperature is too high. The high temperature will accelerate the aging of the internal components of the battery, shorten the service life of the electronic components and destroy the power banks. Similarly, do not store a portable charger in places that are too cold. If a portable charger works in an ultra-cold environment, moisture will form in a portable charger interior and damage the circuit board when the internal temperature rises.
4. Use a Matching Charging Device
The USB connector must be matched, because the devices corresponding to various USB data cables are different. In regular use, please pay attention to the difference of the output current and voltage of a portable charger. In order to use a portable charger to charge your devices normally, please use the matching USB data interface. Choosing a power bank that is compatible with all kinds of the mainstream charging protocols is ideal, because you don’t need to find the individual chargers and cables to charge the individual devices.
The most portable recommended power bank is the Zendure 18W 10,000mAh slim power bank.

Slim and Portable
In general, we like electronics and accessories that are slim and light enough to save space and carry easily. However, most of the power banks in the market have a large and heavy body as they pursue higher capacity and more batteries inside.
