π How to Choose the Right Power Bank: From 5000mAh to 20000mAh
This guide breaks down what different capacities mean, and how to choose the best fit for your needs. β
π§ Understanding Capacity: What Does mAh Mean?
Power banks are measured in mAh (milliamp-hours), which indicates how much charge they can store. In general, the higher the mAh, the more times it can recharge your devices.
β οΈ Note: Due to energy loss during voltage conversion, you typically get about 70β75% of the rated capacity as usable power. For example, a 20000mAh power bank usually provides around 14000β15000mAh of actual output.
