 Iphone battery power pack - Bobby
I have an iphone 15pro max - according to spec the battery is 4422mAh

I have a powerpack that is 5000mAh - so theoretically it should fully charge it again

But a fully charged powerpack only ever puts about 40-45% into the battery and then the powerpack is down to one LED.

Does this just mean powerpack is goosed? Its one of these www.amazon.co.uk/Charmast-5000mAh-Battery-Portable-Compatible/dp/B0B18BCNH4

Power banks do lose some efficiency so only expect about 80% from it but it does seem you aren't getting even that. Tried it on different phone?

mmm might try that - or try leaving it on it overnight and see what charge it gets to if I leave it all night

>> I wouldn’t. Found my Belkin power bank ominously swollen after using it to charge my phone last week. It’s now residing in a bucket of sand in the garden until I can dispose of it safely

Not sure how one full battery charges an empty one beyond a balance point when they charge each other ?

The rating for the powerpack is probably a lie, and its also not all useable. There is also losses in the charging process, ie heat.

Bobby - if you need a new one, don't mind shopping on Amazon and are quick, these are around £11 at the moment (45% discount applied at checkout) 10000 mAh and pocket sized. I have two and they are very good, charge really quickly. INIU 45W Fast Charging Power Bank

I think the discount won't show unless you use that link.

Arrived today. Heavier than the one I was using. Not sure if it’s carry about in the jeans pocket weight.
But ideal for rucksacks on trips.
