The right power bank and charging gear keep your devices running without the frustration of slow or mismatched chargers. Here is what to check.

Power bank capacity

Capacity is measured in mAh. A 10,000mAh power bank usually charges a typical phone about two times, while a 20,000mAh model gives you roughly twice that. Bigger banks are heavier, so pick based on how you travel.

Wattage and fast charging

Match the charger to your device. Phones, tablets and laptops need different wattage, and USB-C Power Delivery is the common standard for fast charging. Make sure both the power bank and the cable support the speed you want.

Cables matter

A cheap or worn cable can slow charging. Look for braided, well-rated USB-C cables, and choose multi-cable or magnetic options if you charge several devices.

Wireless charging

Wireless pads and stations are great for a tidy desk or nightstand. Check that your phone supports the wattage, and that your case works with wireless charging.

Traveling with a power bank

Airlines generally require power banks to go in your carry-on, not checked luggage. Rules vary, so check your airline before you fly.
