@Dynamik I got 30,000mAh Aduro battery on woot and it’s there again now for $30. Seems perfectly nice except now I can’t find where I put it. I might have to order another one. Its main disadvantage other than size is long charging time. But it’s nice to not have to derp around with multiple batteries.
Bought these before, and very useful for those that have USB C devices and chargers. Imean you can always use the A port, but 3A C is nice. And I just leave my C-C cable plugged into the battery at all times.
@hchavers I believe some kind of voodoo makes these things rain onto their property in large quantities. This happens often enough I’d imagine meh has created a large funnel to catch this power bank rain and channel the things into the warehouse. Of course they also catch face masks this way too.
@sammydog01 Oh so closes, but I really want the Qi charging version (I have a couple of Mophie USB micro chargers, but I’d really like wireless charging).
The battery inside my phone is getting weaker and weaker. I keep my phone plugged into one of these except when I am in a social situation. The six foot long USB cable makes me look like more of a dork than usual.
I have 2 of these and 2 of the 10,000mAh version. The 10,000 mAh ones are too big for many pockets. So I will buy more.
I love my 6000mAH version, but, despite the lower mAH, mine have a built in USB C cord to connect to my devices for fast charging (as well as a normal USB port), and I think that form factor is the clear winner.
@marymaryk. Only downside I’ve found - I’ve got a powerbank with a built in charge cord. My charging station at home doesn’t have easy access to a charging socket - i built it with the actual chargers on the back. It does have plenty of charging cables hanging off the front. PITA when i need to charge the powerbank.
@neuromancer If you click the (TINY TINY) power button) it shows it is charging. Not a usual blink from bottom to top… Mine are charging now. Will update if they do not. But a rather abysmal ay to see; I agree. But yes it is charging. Gotta hit the (TINY TINY) power button to see. Not intuitive at all.
@jonjen2@neuromancer I bought three. Two of them charge at about 1.8 amps. The third cant get any higher charge rate than 0.22 amps. I’ve swapped them between the USB cables and it’s not the cables.

I continue my crusade to get you to sell a single 20,000mAh battery instead of many smaller batteries that equal to 20,000+.

@Dynamik You and I are very different people, my friend; I, for one, can’t wait for them to sell 1000x 20 mAh power banks instead!

@alose Sea to sea? That’s a a long ass cable.

I’ve been waiting for some powerpacks. My day has finally come!
If I designed my on power bank I would call it Grayskull just so I could yell out, By the power of Grayskull every time i used it.
@Num1Zero I could never understand why Skeletor just didn’t go somewhere else… oh yeah, that flop, er movie, where they came to New York. Nevermind!
By the power vested in mediocrebot by meh you have been empowered to buy.
Do these things grown on trees or something? We need silicon chips, not ion wafers.
@hchavers I believe some kind of voodoo makes these things rain onto their property in large quantities. This happens often enough I’d imagine meh has created a large funnel to catch this power bank rain and channel the things into the warehouse. Of course they also catch face masks this way too.
@hchavers @Kidsandliz That sounds pretty plausible. Sucks about the face masks, though.
Oh hey look, its another power bank… maybe tomorrow we’ll get something interesting like a bluetooth speaker.
The power button on these needs to be a different color. To much time spent flipping it around trying to locate.
I was hoping for a Mophie 10000mAH Qi charger with USB C - Sidedeal had almost the exact one I wanted, except it didn’t have USB C…
@scapri Does this work for you? I also had a scratch off coupon on the front page.

I also use these for Raspberry Pis and Arduinos.

Did anybody who got these batteries find that none of them are taking a charge?
