QUOTE(obs5279 @ Jun 18 2014, 11:58 AM) Would like to ask, I own a xiaomi powerbank 3 weeks ago, the output amp stated 2.1A but my phone (ip5) only 1A, will it spoil my phone battery? Actual charging current might be vary according to how much current can be absorbed by phone. It is not necessary must be 2.1A during charging.

QUOTE(cactuscch @ Jun 18 2014, 10:42 AM) I'm interested to know how good is xiaomi 5200mAh powerbank. I read somewhere that 10400mAH has up to 93% efficincy while the 5200mAh has up to 85% efficiency. It'll be great to include testing of the 5200mAh version powerbank. Ya, i will spend my time to do the test if i get the 5200mAh unit.

QUOTE(NoKusshon @ Jun 20 2014, 04:29 PM) oh i forgot already..the only i know is the capacity is 2500mah  FYI the mAh is not the correct rating to represent the capacity of the battery. That's why we need to refer the power rating.

QUOTE(HuiEn @ Jun 21 2014, 03:44 PM) It din't represent the actual efficiency. Since i did not open the case, i assuming the total capacity of the battery is 10400mAh. Based on what i am getting for the result, I think the battery they are using are more than 2600mAh per cell. It shouldn't be so high for the efficiency. I will carry out the test for 1A output to confirm the result.

QUOTE(kimuxaki @ Jun 22 2014, 02:36 PM) So conclusion is.. Xiaomi powerbank is worth the money? ya i am pretty sure that most of the people here agree with this. But the problem is a lot of people don't even have chance to buy the powerbank, limited stock.
