Frequently Asked Questions
The capacity of power banks are commonly measured in milliampere hours (mAh). As a general rule, the bigger the number, the more energy charge the powerbank can store and the longer it will work before needing to be recharged.
Ideal for use in and around your home or to run electronics while you're out and about, power stations provide power for your off-grid activities.
They often feature multiple output options, such as USB and high-capacity 12V connectivity.
Uninterruptable Power Supplies (UPS) provide emergency backup power when the main power source fails. This makes it ideal for protecting hardware such as computers to prevent a loss of data.
