With a power bank of 10,000 mAh you can charge your smartphone 10 times.

 What is mAh?

The difference between power banks.

Each power bank has its own capacity, which indicates how often your electrical devices can be charged with your power bank. A power bank with more capacity (mAh) can therefore charge your devices more often compared to a power bank with less capacity. Some electrical appliances consume more power and therefore require a higher capacity charger. A 30,000 mAh power bank is suitable for charging your Macbook or Laptop where other power banks cannot do this.

How often can I charge my phone with a power bank?

The number of times you can charge your smartphone, tablet or laptop with a power bank depends on the capacity of the battery. You can easily calculate how often your devices can be charged with a power bank when you divide the capacity of the power bank by the capacity of your electrical device. For example: Capacity smartphone is 4000 mAh and the power bank 12,000 mAh. Then you can divide 12,000 mAh by 4,000 mAh and the answer is three times.
