really? try pressing the power button on the power bank and it should start charging for me

I know how to use a power bank....

It starts charging, the phone turns on. Halfway through battery banks shuts down and phone turns off.

Not trying to insult your intelligence there. Coz my old iphone 4 need not to press the power button to get it to charge but my new iPhone 6 needs to press the button. Just sharing

That's first time I hear that though. Weird issue.

I'm using the iphone5S. I need to press the power button. (Plugs in > charges > then stop charging after 2 seconds > press power again > start charging)

The xiaomi charger did not have any issues charging my iphone(as long as it's battery is not flat) or my Redmi note.
But I always can't seem to get it to power up and charge my iphone.

At first I thought it was the cable, but I tested this out with orginal apple cables and certified belkin cables. Same issue.

bro....i do not have my problem u said on 10k fat type xiaomi power bank when my 5s is flat(5s battery life sucks lol).
weird...

This happened to me several times but it does not occur for my eneloops.

Hmm...
It goes like
Flat > battery bank plugged in > charging > switches on > stop charging while starting up > phone goes back to flat without switching on.

I'm actually pretty happy with the 5s. Not too large and more than sufficient speed. But battery life is horrible after 1.5 years of usage. Regretted not swapping it for another refurbished right after the one year warranty was up.

Change your ip5s battery to new one?
Price should be less than rm200 I think

Using xiaomi 10k now..

Hmm. Thanks. I'll keep that in mind.

weird case for u....but nonetheless i like my 5s alot too...not too bulky and good enuf for me

im using xiaomi MI powerbank 16 000mAh , ordered direct from them

I use Soshine E4S. User replaceable 18650 LiPo battery can run on 1 or 2 battery. Works great.. LCD performance tells you sufficient information on the source battery or item you are charging. It will automatically shutdown if load is less then 100mA can be annoying if your are trying to continuous run items with low power drain items.

Power rating depends on what rated battery you put in.. so no more ripoff jobs.. good thing is you can charge a coup of battery for stand by. It can be switch to deliver 2.1A or 1.0A.

wahh how much ?

Buy branded 1 better quality..

Better dun get those 30000mah powerbank, later will end up charging the powerbank like siao
20000mah powerbank already take around 11+ hours to charge with 2A input, the 30000mah will take around 16+ hours to charge provided it is really 30000mah capacity

well okey , thanks for the advice

If the powerbank is using a 12V type charger, should be OK. If using those normal 5V charger, charge till pengsan

actually i got 2 powerbank , pineng 20 000mAh usually keep it at home because its big + heavy , when im on moving i will bring xiaomi 16 000mAh due to the size much better compared to pineng

usually is user problem.

If cable faulty will affect or if didnt plug in properly so better check first.

i got all 4 never had such problem

Xiaomi 16k good enough
