Batteries That A Lipstick Power Bank Can Contain

By Johny Jacson


Although not everyone believes that a lipstick power bank is needed, it is necessary to have one especially if you are always on the go.

This is true for people who need to have fully charged gadgets most of the time for constant communication or to do technical work.

With this, here are some reasons to consider on why you should get yourself a lipstick power bank.

Scrutinize the text information that are stamped onto the power bank.

The model, output voltage, capacity, input voltage and the brand name are the information that are typically stamped onto the lipstick power bank. If these information are blurry, faded out or smaller than usual, then the power bank is fake.

The information should be stamped on one area of the power bank. The brand name may be stamped on another area of the power bank. A fake power bank may have wrong information and wrong font styles.

Li-ion (Lithium Ion) Battery

This battery can charge gadgets in 2-4 hours. When exposed to a temperature of 1-2 degrees Celsius, the li-ion battery will charge devices with a higher power. It can create a temperature of -20-60 degrees Fahrenheit and it typically costs $100. It also requires no maintenance.

Safety

Like the caution information on the battery cell, the user manual may contain information written in other languages. Some power banks may provide the user manual only in English, especially if they're new to the public. The manual must also include instructions on how to use the power bank and the purpose of the power bank's external components.

Compare the price to the original price.

Fake power banks cost around 25% of the original power banks' price.

This battery can charge gadgets at a maximum power when exposed to a temperature of 0.5-5 degrees Celsius. It can take 2-4 hours to charge devices and it requires maintenance for 60-90 days to prevent crystalline formation.

It can produce a temperature of -20-60 degrees Fahrenheit and its typical price is $20. The NiMH can be recycled because it contains small amounts of toxins. It is typically used to charge laptops and smart phones.

Moreover, most chargers today offer functionality as its best feature. It has an input Micro USB and connector for output USB that can be both used at the same time.

A real USB plug is slightly longer and has the power bank's brand name. It has a USB logo and has a yellow top port. Some genuine power banks come with a USB plug port that has a beige top port. The real USB plug's metal looks smooth, while the fake one seems grainy. Grainy metal indicates that a cheaper manufacturing process or metal is used.

Inspect the FCC, RoHS, UL and CE labels that are stamped onto the power bank.

The FCC (Federal Communications Commission), RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances Derivative), UL (Underwriters Laboratories), and the CE (Conformit Europene) labels indicate that the power bank is safe for usage.

These are the different kinds of batteries that a lipstick power bank may need to function properly.
