Useful tips to keep in mind when buying a power bank


Your own personal requirements will determine what kind of charger you need to have. If you don’t carry too many devices when you travel, then you can buy a small and low capacity power bank just to charge your cell phone. If you need to charge a iPad, tablet, etc. then it is important to have one with a higher capacity.

1. Capacity
The main attribute associated to a power bank is its capacity. You cant exactly calculate how many times a specific power bank can charge your device, but keep this rule in mind – more mAH = more capacity.

If you have a cell phone with a 1500mAH battery, then ideally 1500mAH can fully charge your cell phone once. When you are buying a portable power bank, make sure it can charge the battery of a specific device. Why not buy yourself a power bank today, take a look at Off Grid’s website where there is a wide variety of power banks to choose from at an affordable price.

2. USB Charging
Most current power bank chargers have built-in USB charging capability. Some of the older models don’t have this feature. After you have fully charged your power bank at home, it is a simple matter to connect the device to your cellphone with an adapter and your phone will start charging instantly.

3. Price & Quality
Apart from battery strength, one other thing which can help decide which power bank charger is best for you is the price! However, you should never buy a portable power bank which either uses refurbished batteries or which doesn’t contain the basic features.

4. Portability
One of the main reasons to buy a power bank is the fact that it is portable. The ability to charge your devices on the move because you can simply take a charger with you is a huge plus!

Because of the large number of personal devices that we now have, such as smartphones, tablets, iPads, cameras, GPS and iPods to name a few, it is basically a necessity to have one if you want to make sure you never run out of battery power on your device.

5. Power Bank Recommendations
Off Grid can provide you with a wide range of different backup power solutions, one being power banks. Visit the website today and browse through some of the devices on offer, if you’re looking for a power bank that is both affordable and high quality then this is where you’ll find it.

A portable power bank charger can make a huge difference in the enjoyment of your devices. We need them in our everyday lives and a power bank makes it possible to keep our communications going after our device batteries have died.

Beat load shedding with a Power Bank

Load shedding has been under control for a while now, and we haven’t heard anyone utter the word lately. However we do live in South Africa and load shedding is an evil that can arise at any time and place, plus let’s not forget that power surges and spikes happen too.

Off Grid has the perfect load shedding solutions for your home or your business, they can help you get through the problems with affordable and simple backup power devices.

One great way to get through load shedding is to purchase a power bank and make sure that it is always juiced up and ready to go!

This may seem like an obvious option, but it is very important. There is only so long a smartphone or tablet can last on one charge, so having a spare power bank with extra charge is a must have in load shedding or power cut situations.

Off Grid’s favourite little power banks, that are available to purchase, are:

Of course, there are definitely alternatives to using a power bank, but if you need to keep your battery life going strong then the power bank is a  small, easy and cost effective option.
