Have you ever had the situation where you take out your mobile phone to order or take a taxi or pay for a meal, only to find it has only 5% charge left! Mobile power is an essential "core energy source" in our lives, bringing life to our phones. How can we maintain our mobile power to make it last longer? Huarigor shows you some methods to prolong the bank powe‘r service life.
Use a power bank for a compatible device
Ensure that the device you are charging with your mobile power is compatible by ensuring that the mAh of your device is lower than that of the mobile power and that the description of the mobile power indicates that it is compatible with your device. You can find this information online or by contacting the company that makes the mobile power.
Also, be sure to check the voltage and current. Basically, 1A is suitable for your smartphone, so use it; if the current is 2A, double check that your phone is suitable for it.
Charge your mobile phone below 80%
Charging above 80% puts a strain on the mobile power. It‘s a voltage problem: it reaches a constant value and the current starts to drop over time. If you use your mobile power to charge your smartphone up to 80%, your mobile power will consume less energy and last longer.
Avoid overheating or overcooling
You want to avoid using your mobile power in extreme temperatures as this can damage the battery and shorten the life of your mobile power. Keep it at room temperature and don‘t leave it in your car. The high temperatures in your car in summer can cause the mobile power to explode.
Do not leave the mobile power at 0% charge
It is best to charge your mobile power when it reaches 50% to prevent it from reaching 0%. This is because when the voltage is too low, the voltage can also be too low, causing damage to the lithium battery by carbonising it and thus shortening its potential.
Keep your mobile power away from liquids
Mobile power supplies, like mobile phones without waterproof cases, are not suitable for water. Liquids can damage them and possibly ruin them, so keep them away from all liquids and high humidity.
Final thoughts
How long will your mobile power supply last? It‘s not a one-size-fits-all answer! The average is 1.5-3.5 years or 300-1000 charge cycles, depending on quality, battery capacity, construction, brand, battery type and how you use it. It‘s more about learning how to choose the right mobile power and ways to extend its life.
