Powerbank for Redmi 1s - Xiaomi Redmi 1S

Hello guys!Do you use any powerbank for your redmi 1s in emergency situations when you run out of battery and you don't have a power supply anywhere near?I bought one for my redmi 1s but it's only charging the phone for like 60-70% max and then it turns off,considering the powerbank has a capacity of 5600 mAh and should do at least 2 full charges.
Are you experiencing something similiar?
Is there something important about powerbanks that i missed?
Thanks!
Here's the link Click Me

I have the 10400mAh, it really works great.
I myself have charge my Redmi 1s twice and moto G (i.e 3 full charges) still some juice was remaining.
I guess the best thing is to let your Power Bank fully discharge and then continuously charge it fully. Then try again. I guess it should atleast give u 1 & half full charge (1 & 1/2).
But i dont have 5600mAh version so cant properly judge on it.
Thanks...

So you're saying that you charged 6000 mAh ( 2 x 2000 mAh redmi and 1 x 2000 mAh moto G ) out of a 10400 powerbank?that's not too good either.You should have left 2 full charges for your redmi 1s / moto g.And from my 5600 mAh powerbank I should be able to charge my redmi 1s at least 2 times ( full ) and remain with another 50% charge of my battery.Isn't it correct or I'm missing something ?
Btw you have Xioami 10400 mAh powerbank or another brand?I watched some review of xiaomi powerbank and the guy charged about 10000mAh out of it.Thanks for answer!

The Company ever state that it has 100% Efficiency ?
We always can't judge on Mah Values my friend !

I don't even know what company made it.It doesn't have a name.Anyway,I should have expected to not work very good for 11 $ .I'll do more cicles of discharge/full charge,maybe I'll get 1 or 2 full charges out of it.2 would be perfect

I have the 10400 mAh Xiaomi powerbank, and for me it works like a charm. I won't claim I can get five full charges out of it, but I can get more than three for sure.

3-4 charges is pretty good.I mean you can go camping in a weekend without worring about powersupply to charge your phone/other gadgets I'll give mine to someone to charge his samsung galaxy s3,maybe it's something wrong with redmi 1s compatibility.All the best

Mi Power Bank 10400 MAh
I m using Mi Power Bank with 10400mAh capacity.
I can charge my redmi 1s three times only and still it is left some power.

Powerbanks never operate at 100% efficiency. Actually no battery can achieve it, there will be some interference which will inhibit full capacity.
I read somewhere that the Mi Powerbank works usually at 80% efficiency. So actual might be around 4160 mAh (or is the math to be done in some other way?)
Taking an example, i had my Mi Powerbank fully charged in two different instances. Once the powerbank died in less than one full charge of my Redmi 1s. The next time i left it to charge for about 30 minutes more even when the LED indicated full charge. I could charge one full cycle and one upto 60%. In the second instance, the charge would have been 3200 mAh.
Now, you should also consider its self discharge. When batteries are left for a long time they lose some charge on their own. Plus in winter, batteries tend to discharge more quickly, since the chemical reaction inside goes slow and at one point the battery won't cope up with the demand.
The bottom line, numbers are not always the true value of the equipment. It depends on the environment around you.

You should also consider that the phone is ON when charging. It charges, but also uses power. So when you charge your phone, you use at least 3000 mAh. I own the 10400 version and, depending on whether the wifi is on, the data connection etc, it charges my phone 2-3 times.

Yea....but I get about 1500 mAh out of a 5600 mAh powerbank.So,still,it's not very good.I think I'll buy xiaomi one soon and will try to find another redmi 1s battery so I have a back-up battery .

Well,this was cheaper I think and it was easy to buy(the seller was 10 minutes away from my location).I paid for it about 11 $ ... When I'll have more money I'll buy one.However,I noticed that it really helps even if it doesn't charge my phone 100% .When I prepare to leave and realise I might run out of battery I take it and when my battery is close to empty I connect it and it helps me ... even if it gives me 30% is enough for passing trough the night.

i see

Software to test 3500 mah battery capacity?

I have a 3500 mah battery I bought from the dark side of the moon. It "looks" real and it will operate my phone, but is it REALLY 3500 mah?
Is there some sort of software that I can download that will tell me the battery's capacity?
Thinking about this.
The 1500 mah stock battery charges at a max rate of 650 ma's (even with a 1 amp charger) and takes roughly 2.3 hours to fully charge.
I suppose I could charge it from 50 to 60%, determine how long that takes and multiply by 10 to get the approximate charging time. I say approximate because EVO batteries take less and less juice as they approach 100% charge.
So anyway, once I have the approximate charging time I can multiple that by 650 and get the approximate mah of the battery:
So, if it the total charging time is 4.5 hours I would just multiple 4.5 x 650 and get 2950 mah as the capacity.
I'll try this and see if it works.
try batteryboss.org, i think he had ordered one from hong kong to test, the seidio only did 2810 mah when he tested it, I got one of the 3500's from the states but it is the same as the hong kong version lasts the same as seidio ... way better than the stock 1500, but your method should work as a rough estimate i think.
Did a quick first pass. It took about 13 minutes to charge 10%.
That's 13 x 10 = 130 / 60 = 2.16 x 650 ma = 1408
So, on first blush it would appear that my 3500 mah chinese battery is actually a 1500 mah battery stuck in a 3500 mah battery case.
Sucks, but on the other hand, I got 2 1500 mah batteries for $20 which isn't a bad deal. That being said, do I want to have a big heavy phone for a battery that is no better than my stock?
On the other hand, not being a stock EVO battery, this battery may actually be charging at a full amp. That being the base, I am closer to 2500 + which wouldn't be bad at all. Have to download a amperage testing program and see how many amps it is drawing while charging.
** They never tested the chinese battery at batteryboss.org
OK, installed Current Widget from the Market. It will log my average amperage during the test and we'll find out what's what. I think the answer will be that this chinese battery with 3500 mah written on it is really just a 1500 mah battery.
Well, based upon my Current Meter, the charging amperage is all over the place, mostly between 450 and 550 ma. If that is true, then my calculations change:
13 x 10 = 1300 / 60 = 2.1666 x 500 (avg) = 1083 mah.
Just keeps getting worse.
Omg? I hope that battery isn't from GorillaGadgets.com
Edited: I bought one last night, gonna arrive 10 days.

Well, these tests I am running arent exactly accurate. However there is no way a true 3500 mah battery would charge 10% in 13 minutes. Not possible.
Ok, I have two of these 3500 mah batteries. I decided to sacrifice one to science since it was so cheap. I tore it apart and here is what I saw:
Instead of one battery, it looks like two batteries kind of jerry-rigged together. There seems to be connections on both batteries top and bottom. I have no idea if a true 3500 mah battery is supposed to be one solid cell, but these are not.
The batteries have a serial code on them: 044060A JK30
I traced these to a company in China by the name of: Dongguan Delon Power Co., Ltd. They do, in fact, make these batteries; however, there is NO MENTION anywhere on their webpage whatsoever of what the mah is for this particular battery.
In order for this to be a 3500 mah battery, these would have to be two 1750's. I seriously doubt they are. I'm calling BS.
Here are some pics:

i was about to say the same thing. your best bet is to charge completely, then run it to zero while logging current. then you can import the log to a spreadsheet, and calculate the capacity from there. this wont be perfect, but it will eliminate a lot of variables, and give a fair comparison with stock battery.
Well, at this point the most interesting thing is that this is NOT one battery but two soldered together.
The odd thing is that on every site I checked that sells these, it does NOT list the mah, only the voltage. How the hell are people supposed to buy them if they dont know the mah?
first sorry about bumping such an old post but again i think someone may visit and not get good info so i will add some words,,
these lion batteries charge extremely fast initially only after reaching 90 percent their charging becomes hell slow,,
so to test a battery first take ur oem batter drain it until ur phne shuts offs,,
now put it on charge and after 10 minutes turn it on dont use it ,, just leaveit,, let it fully charge,, fully charge means when ur cell prompts charging completed. or done or 100 % done etc,, note all this time,,,from the time u put the attery till it became full,,
now look at ur charger for output current and multiply that with the amount of time in hours ,, e.g if it took 2.3 ( 2 hours approx 20 minutes) hours and ur charger current otput was 1 amp,, then the ans is 1 x 2.3 =2.3 AH,,, or 2300 mili amps,, now the charging process is not eficient ,, its 30 % loss so get 30 % of 2.3 and subtract it from 2300 mah,, that is ur rough capacity,,,
do same experiment for the high capacity 3500 mah battery as well,,
als weight is another factor which can alone tell u at least if the high capacity battery is having more capacity then current oem or not..
repeat that process...2 or 3 times get the mean u got some good figures,,,,
remember that batteries capacity is not accuratly advertised ,, it may be off by at least 5-10 % for good quality cells ,, poor cellls may be 50 % off from rated capacity,,in that case u can weight the batteries to get an idea,,,
so what r ur results ?
r those batteries still alive

Anker 2700mah battery (yep, not 2500)

Just saw that Anker released a 2700mah version battery for the note, an extra 200mah ain't much but it's still a bit more... The price is also good, just ~10$
Ebay Link
updated label
Anyone have a link to site that'll ship internationally?
I can't seem to find anyone that ship this or the original 2500mAh Anker to South Africa
Awesome just ordered one!
please, update the weight when you receive it....
Ordered one from Amazon.com for less than the 2500.
Here`s 2X for $16.99 / £10.99, I add them to my watch list a week or two ago.

How is the battery performance?
And how long does the external charger take to charge a batt fully?
I just bought the Anker 2700mAh combo from a local dealer in Singapore. 2 batteries and charger at SGD40. Charging the battery at the moment... Cant wait to test the batteries!
Take the total average time your phone lasts until it dies
So if your phone lasts only 6 hours on average do this
60 * 6 = 360 minutes
Then do 2500(mah)/360(minutes) = 6.94(mah per min)
So the stock 2500 mah battery should last for 360 minutes
While the anker 2700 mah will last you 389.04 minutes
So for $10-13 dollars will get you an extra 30 minutes

No, for $10-13 you get a secondary battery which can potentially go 30 minutes more than the stock battery
So you will get, say 6 hours from the stock battery and 6.5hours for each anker battery (of which you get 2?)
So thats 6 + 6.5 + 6.5 = 19hours ! (19 Hours of usage, Not 19hours standby)
pretty awesome for $<15

I'm in the camp of people who don't want to carry extra devices and constantly removing the back cover
It is not 19 hours of constant usage.
The oem gives me on average 6 hours in the day which also includes Standby.

Someone Have the Ebay Link To get Anker 2700mAh in Italy?
Thanks
I have the Anker 2500mah and 2700 mah. Battery life for the 2700mah is similar to 2500mah and the interesting thing is that the 2700mah weighs 2 g lesser than both the Original and Anker 2500mah. Taht's disappointing costhey stopped selling the 2500mah and sold the 2700mah at a higher price.
I bought the dual pack with charger. I have been very happy with the battery life a bit better than stock, but now I have a working 3250 mah battery so I keep the Ankers as spare.
Frankly the price is not high considering the quality of the product.

is that 3250 mah that gold stock size battery?
is it legit? does it actually provide 3250?
on the battery showdown or the 3250 review, they said it was a load of crap and the battery died after a short while or something.

well 2700mah pack costs more than the 2500mah pack with same performance. anyway they have increased the price again after my purchase, so for any new buyers I would recommend others maybe the gold battery.
The separators at the battery contact point has has broken for all my anker batteries and also the top edges seemed to have been cracked too. It is minor nonetheless.

External Power Backup 3000-3200mAh

Hi everyone.
Be care full all things of this kind of battery is just publicity nothing real.
Here is how it's look

Inside is just a regulator for charg internal battery and a power up convertor to get 5V
The main battery who run this external battery is just a big flat 2800 mAh 3,7V battery more exact his code is YY 426390P 3.7V 2800mAh 12YE005.
Price tell you how much is plastics, how much is true and how much is publicity.
Here is the pics with image from what is inside.
Power Board covertor up/down from 5 to 4.2V max (that much can take Li Ion battery) when charge extender battery and up convertor from 3.7-4.2 to 5v to power your phone.
All parst who make the extender
The back cover of extender
The EXTENDER BATTERY 2800mAh not 3200mAh and never will get 2800mAh as he convert his power to 5V wher will lose some power on convertor (the button for on/off get hot when is used to power your phone)
Make a litle ajustment for hole of back camera and flash because when you shut in low light and have flash on or auto the white around flash will get back on your camera and picture will get unclear and with to much shadow. I will got a permanent marker black and make the hole black around camera and flash. In this way i can take a pic w/o get some noise from white.
Here is things who get broken easy w/o meaning i wish to do that i never know when i did that but i did it
As advice if you want a battery extender dont get this kind better buy an another 2500mAh and you get more power than from this.
Or use and inside replacement battery than external power battery except the price is very cheap.
Remember this batterys have some power to lose when get charge your phone because is a convertor who get hot (more or less ) but that means he lose that power.
Using my old 3.7V 3000mAh battery from Galaxy I9000 give me more power than this Extender and was only 10$ instead of 19$ who was this.
For around 10$ will worth and not you buy it for extend your time to play with phone but dont expect to much.
Hope some will get this value at least i will feel good because not all got cheat by numbers
Bought one of this (black) on ebay for £14.99, and I can tell you that it can not charge the phone battery over 85%. Phone gets excessively hot whilst getting charge. Also, IT TAKES FOREVER TO CHARGE UP THIS THING. Standard battery charges up in about 2.5 hours but it takes more than 8hours to this power pack.
NOT RECOMMENDED.

Sigh, and I wanted to get one for my Note. I guess it has some issues with build quality. :crying:
Anyways, thanks for the heads up.
I nearly want to bug exactly this type of power bank. Now, change my mind tp buy cheap extended 5000mah instead.

Get 2 this even they dont have real 5000mAh will get more than 1 as 2600-3000 and is a pair of 2 so you will have 3 battery for a very low price and 2 of them it will keep you all day long using alot.

Thanks for your recommend link. So, cheap 5000 isnt really 5000. It will be less than that. So i need to prepare 2x 5000mah for me to last a day long. I can order from ebay. Maybe will search other thread to buy it.
Hoping for a reply on this old topic..
Sorry for bringing back an old post, but I have a question about this. I actually bought one of these long before I ever read this post, and to be honest up until it completely stopped being able to charge my internal battery, I never had one problem with this case, and actually really liked it. All that came to a sad halt when one day, it just stopped being recognized by my Galaxy Note when plugged into it. Which mind you really made no sense to me because if I plugged the little Mirco USB tail to another device that could be charged by the same battery and had a Micro USB female to accept it, it was picked up and had no problems charging it, as well, my Note could be charged by any other Micro USB charger, so why all of a sudden it stopped being able to be charged by this case/battery is beyond me since both work fine unless plugged together. I contacted the place where I purchased it and they did send me out another one free of charge and told me to keep the one that wasn't working anymore.
When I found this post, I decided to open the the broken one, and googled the number on the battery "426390P" which was the only reason I found this post. This post actually surprised me because up until this one stopped working, it was working perfectly fine on my SGH-i717. I mean it charged the battery everytime to 100%, sometimes it would charge my battery about 1.5 times before I would have to recharge it. I thought it was the best case I have ever used quite honestly.
So now the real reason for replying to this post. Do you guys think that if I could find a 3.7V, higher mAh battery (or even make my own) that would fit in the case, it would work with the upconverter board that is already inside? I am no electronics expert, so I don't know the functions of all the pieces on the board, but I figured if I could find or make a new higher mAh battery that would fit inside, not only would it beef up the longevity of my battery life on my device, but it would allow me to keep using a case that I actually like and love the way it fits with my device and since I have the black case, I do not have the glare issue with the camera nor any shadowing issues.
I am curious as to what you guys think..
Thanks in advance!

[REVIEW] OnePlus One + Avantek 20000 mAh Battery = AWESOME

Fed up waiting to buy the official OnePlus external battery I got this from Amazon.
The first time I saw the box, before actually opening it, I thought : “Wow, this thing is too bulky !!!”.

But after opening a very nice box, I was pleasantly surprised to see that the battery, it’s about the size of a laptop battery.
The Avantek 20000 mAh battery pack’s build is really impressive. Considering the high capacity and low price, it would be easy for one to assume that build quality is where Avantek would’ve cut corners, but that really isn’t the case.
The battery has a very nice gloss white finish, which really feels great in the hands. The whole unit looks very solid, premium and well built.
I have used the battery pack for a week almost every day. I’ve charged it overnight with the provided charger a week ago and have used it, as I already said for a week and the blue led indicator still shows I have 25% left of juice. I have used it to keep my charge on my phone (OnePlus One) and on my tablet (HP Touchpad). The power bank just works.
To use it, you only have to plug in a USB cable, one end to the power bank and the other to your phone/other device. Depending on how much juice is left in the power bank and the device that is to be charged, the power bank will start sending current to charge your connected 1 or 2 devices at the same time. I thought the battery will get warm while in use, but even with both my phone and my tablet connected the battery was still cold to the touch.
This 20000 mAh power bank costs less than £35, which I think it’s great value for money. For the price you’ll manage to keep your chosen device(s) powered for a week, and this is quite a feat, considering most devices don’t last a day.
Does anybody else have an Avantek 20000 mAh battery pack? How long have you been using it?
So how many times can you charge your OnePlus One with the power bank?
simple math

OPO battery is 3100mah, powerbank holds 20000, so just divide the one by the other.
Did you know you can even type equations into google and it will solve them for you?
Try it for yourself:
20000 / 3100

20000 / 3100 is the most ideal situation.
as i know, there will be energy consumption in the process of charging.
there should be a conversion rate.
I have used the power bank as I said to keep my OnePlus powered for a week, just plugged the phone when I was in the car or office . I didn't try charging from 0 though

Is the Power bank actually 20000? Not much powerbanks that say they 20000 mAh, really are 20000 mAh. They are usually somewhere around 15000 or 16000 mAh.
Might get myself one of these.. I've been waiting for a while now for OnePlus to release their power pack, but it doesn't seem like that is coming for a while, so in the mean time I might get one of these. It also seems pretty decent for the price.
I just got a vinsic 20000mAh power bank! I love the build quality of that thing, solid metal construction and a nice %light .. Its massive tho.. But I don't care

smart circuit offers an energy conversion rate of 90% and prevents overcharging

so the charging times would be 20000 x 90% / 3100
Their reviewer calcuated the rough charging times for popular devices
iPhone 6 = 1,810 = 11 Recharges
iPhone6+ = 2,915 = 6 Recharges
Galaxy S5 = 2,800 = 6 Recharges
iPad Air 2 = 7,340 = 2 Recharges
Kindle Fire = 4400 = 4 Recharges

Price?
I'm using Xiaomi Powerbank
He said £35 I think..
It costs £35 in the UK, from Amazon. Just search for Avantek 20000 mAh

Which 3rd Party Charger

Hi,
i am just wondering, which Charger should i buy for the S21 Ultra, as i need more, i would buy them not from samsung. Do you have recommendations?
I have the wireless pad that was a freebie with the watch a while back - I'm hoping that will do the job in the day and I'll just use an old one for overnight charging - speed is not of the essence.
Ah cool.
Sometimes during the day i am happy to charge it quick fast, but mostly i also dont careabout the speed, especially overnight.
You can never go wrong with an anker charger but if you can buy from samsung i would recommend their 25w charger. Samsung recently reduced the price of the charger and if anything ever goes wrong with your phone samsung can no longer blame the charger.
I went with the 25W charger from Samsung. It is actually on discount.

i bought this 120w GaN Baseus and both charger and my S21 Ultra came today, i tested the charger with couple of outlets and cables but after couple second of "SUPER FAST CHARGIN" it reverts back to "Fast Charging" ,
its a shame cause i really loved the charger despite the noise it made and i wanted it for my future laptop too which supports 100w PD ,
i have to return it and get the normal one that samsung offering, samsung should've kept the chargers this year...
hope i didn't damaged my brand new phone by connecting and disconnecting it around 20 times
I have a 45W USB-C port as part of an Anker PowerPort and also the 18W charger that came with my Pixel 5. Would I notice much of an improvement in charging speed or long term longevity of the battery by purchasing Samsung's 25W charger?

You can get the maximum charging speed from the 45W Anker PowerPort. And the 18W charger would give you decent charging speed as well. When it comes to charging S21, there's no difference between the 45W Anker and Samsung's 25W charger. And I doubt there's much difference between the 18W and 25W charger.
Thank you. And it shouldn't cause any issues to the integrity/longevity of the battery?
No, it shouldn't. Reliable third-party chargers should just work fine as the original Samsung charger.

Where did you get it for this price? I know you said Samsung but I've never seen it this cheap.

I do not know where he lives but here is a screenshot from the Canadian Samsung.ca site. I would think in the US it would have the same discount and be even cheaper.
Edit: Looking at his part number, I would guess he is in Canada too.
what about this BS Samsung Money by SoFi debit card?
"enjoy up to 30% off sitewide on .... Samsung.com"
do you really get a huge discount with this BS debit card ?
I had to buy another fast charger the other day because of a failing 25 watt brick or cable for my 10+; Fast charging is erratic.
The Samsung 25 brick/cable can be had for under $20.
It's known to work.
I nixed the 45 watt because it likely will decrease battery life and charges only marginally faster.
A working 25 watt brick charges at about 2% a minute which is fine. I go with 20-30% midrange charges so a 10-15 minute break is good.

According to the article below, only four of the chargers they tested charged the S21s at 25W. Two of the four were Samsung OEM chargers.

Fast charging gives me a headache as of late.
A fast charging mini horror tale...
My 10+ was fast charging normally until I slow charge it to 100% one night by accident.
The battery was probably around 85% of its original capacity at that time.
I've tried a new Samsung OEM 25w brick/cable, cleared system cache, toggled fast charging on/off 3X, hard reset, battery calibration, cleaned the C port throughly... everything except a factory reset.
Fast charging engages but usually only for 2-5 minutes, and sometimes the indicated current draw drops as low as 800 ma with only a 80% charge! WTF?
So... is it the battery, port* or a mobo failure?
It's battery replacement time but will that get it?
*the C port appears to connect normally; no charge or data interruption if pushed about.
Good, solid feel... grrrrrr
Just got a EP-TA800 charger and tried charging my S21 at 35% battery capacity and noticed it negotiated at 9V2A = 18W , I also checked this with wall plug meter. But on screen it shows its at super fast charging. So whats the range for 25W charging speed ?
