Clarifications About The 8 Misconceptions Related To A Lipstick Power Bank

By Johny Jacson


If your car stops functioning in an isolated place, you would probably use your device to contact someone for help. But what if your gadget doesn't have any remaining power? In times like this, you should have a lipstick power bank with you.

A power bank only uses two kinds of batteries.

The gadget's battery capacity should be equal to or less than the capacity of the lipstick power bank. For example, an iPhone has a battery capacity of 1,432 mAh.

These 4 batteries are the lead acid, the NiMH, the alkaline and the NiCd batteries.

Automatic on/off mode

Some power banks come with additional connectors for different gadgets. These connectors are the USB and the micro-USB.

Type of Battery

No, it indicates that the gadget is not thoroughly charged yet. Another possible explanation is that the power bank is not compatible with the gadget.

Lithium polymer is an expensive battery that's manufactured from aluminum. It sends 4.20-4.35 volts to fully charged devices and 2.7-3.0 volts to discharged gadgets. It typically charges only cell phones and can withstand a temperature of 0-60 degrees Fahrenheit.

A lipstick power bank without certifications is not safe to use. The certifications obtained from the CE (Conformit Europene), CC (Federal Communications Commission), and the RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive) are proof that the power bank contains important components.

LED power switch

Type of Volt

The lipstick power bank charges gadgets that need an input volt of 5-24 V. A laptop computer is an example of a gadget that requires an input volt of 12-24 V.

You won't find it tough to determine a fake lipstick power bank if you can spot the differences.

Function of LED Indicator

A power bank can charge gadgets that need different input volts.

Your gadget will take 2 to 3 hours for it to be fully charged if it has over 25% remaining power. If your gadget has 10% remaining power, it will take 45 minutes for it to be fully charged. Its four LEDs will light up depending on your gadget's remaining power level. For example, if your gadget has a remaining power level of 25%, one LED will light up. Two LEDs will light up if your gadget has 50% remaining power. If your gadget has 75% remaining power, three LEDs will light up. All four LEDs will light up if your gadget is completely charged. It is compatible with gadgets like the Music player, Windows smart phone, battery cases, Android smart phone, Sony PSP, Amazon Kindle Fire, GPS, Bluetooth speaker, Blackberry smart phone and the Bluetooth headset. It is also compatible with devices that are manufactured by Apple, Google, and Samsung. Apple gadgets include the Apple iPhone 5S, Apple iPod, Apple iPhone 3GS, Apple iPhone 5C, Apple iPhone 4, Apple iPhone 4S and the Apple iPhone 5.

A lipstick power bank is an authentic one if it comes with FCC (Federal Communications Commission), CE (Conformit Europene), UL (Underwriters Laboratories) and RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive) certificates. It must also have a minimum warranty of 1 year.

Additional Features

All types of batteries used for the power bank are safe.

This protector also cuts off electricity when the gadget is fully charged. The electricity cut-off prevents the power bank's life from decreasing because of overcharging.
