What makes it amazing is the fact that its portable and helps you to charge your electronic devices on the go.

How to know a good power bank?
Finding out about how much a power bank cost is not just enough but understanding how to find the best quality power bank is the real deal. So here is the things you should check before buying any power bank.
Brand: In Nigeria there are few trusted power bank brands like Oraimo, New age, Itel power banks and other great brands such as Ace Elec power banks. Though, even a good brand can disappoint if you don’t buy from reliable sellers that focus on original quality products and not fake ones.
Capacity: While the capacity can fail sometimes when you buy a fake power bank, it’s still recommended to go for a bigger battery storage capacity that you can afford. Having a power bank that can charge your phone or other gadgets 3 to 4 times is amazing.
Features: When I talk about features, the question of how many USB port comes to mind, does the power bank come with super fast charging features, does it support type-C charging and discharging features. You might as well need those ones with torch lights and lamps etc.
