We are selling a Locally assembled Power Bank. Unlike other sellers, we randomly took a unit and opened it up, taking some pictures of the interior part of the power bank to show our customers. What you see is what you are going to pay for.

Check out the link.

Contact us if you need any extra info.

based on my experience using both,

External Battery Back Pack (power bank)
Pros
1. new design can charge 2 devices at the same time
2. Higher battery capacity
3. In case you change to a new phone, it still can be use

Cons
1. Higher capacity are bulky and heavy
2. too many fakes / imitations / low quality product as it's widely use and a lot of unethical seller taking the opportunity to sell below average quality product and earn money
3. Longer charging time
4. not easily portable for high capacity unit

Battery Cases (Mophie)
Pros
1. Can be use as a casing to protect your phone
2. less bulky compare to power bank
3. save the need of plugging in to the phone. constant Plug and remove might damage the charging port due to wear and tear. A high quality usb port can only last like 10,000 times.

Cons
1. Limited model available
2. higher price compared to power bank. (cheaper china made might be higher risk) - Original mophie cost around RM300+
3. in the event of changing to a new phone, the unit cant be use anymore.
4. Low capacity. Normally only about the same as the internal battery capacity. in case of mophie for iphone 5, about 1500mAh.

Hope the info helps

bring a charger... the smallest with high capacity is 5500mAh. if you are using an iphone, yes, u can charge max 1.5 - 2 times max

Wanna know how good is the quality? Just ask the local seller to open up a unit and show you the interior...

look good to me...how many mAh? battery 18650?

the yoobao you bought, original unit? if ori and still with warranty... better dont open first..
i also have one yoobao 11200mAh. the one u opened is 13000mAh? what brand? how long you been using? hows the quality so far?

hmm.. if RM60, then confirm not ori...

Visited the seller, Mecury Authorized Reseller. Should be good... looking into both the interior and your feedback.. n the price quite reasonable too.

oh..so u mean u bought it in China? ok then.. sometimes its not because seller wanna mark up.. but the shipment is way too expensive especially if you are using the courier service. Not to mention our Tax.. Imagine if you can buy an Ori at Rm60 in china, those selling RM60 in Malaysia after shipping fee and tax, what are the original cost?

Yes. Pineng original is a good brand... the reason why we are not selling it is there are too many sellers around as well as fake / imitation brands. Too tired to compare already. Those fake sellers are telling everyone its the same, just from different sources.. haiz.. faced the same issue when we are selling original yoobao last time. Now focus on selling JOHOYO which is assembled in Malaysia.. No imitation at all.

u mean from 0 to full 100% 2 times? sure or not?

even 1K I also doubt it can charge twice from 0 to 100%. Cos most power bank comes with a 5W and the battery is 3.7W. U need to convert energy for the charging.. so for a 2200mAh, if you take 80% of it after conversion and energy lost, you left around 1760mAh only. How to charge to full?

Perfectly normal. 7800mAh is the maximum capacity of the power bank. But since most power bank are using 5W and phones are charging input are 3.7w, the energy will need to be converted. Normally we take only 80% of the said maximum capacity. So for a 7800mAh, 80% would means only 6240mAh useable. Plus some energy lose due to standby.. It comes to around the number of time claimed by you.

Hope this explains...

How much u bought? Brand? More details please before we can decide whether you have been conned.

How do u check whether its genuine serial number? I heard from our supplier that the original serial number can only be check once. After that it will become invalid... Anyone can comment on this? Don't really trust statement from china suppliers. Prefer direct testimonials from user

no problem.

oic.. thanks for verification...

Yes... I agreed... always go for original.. we have too many cases where short circuit cause damages.. recently a S4 exploded again in Hong Kong... but this time unsure on what happened..

Not sure get from taobao genuine or not... But if can get in Malaysia y not buy here? U can get any quality u want for Yoobao in Malaysia... From ori down to cheapo fake.

P/s: just make sure u don't sleep near your pb when charging... Misfortunes happen randomly.
