Charge cycle

Laadcyclus

The lifespan of a power bank is often expressed in the number of charge cycles. But what exactly does this mean?

What is a charge cycle?

A charge cycle means that the power bank's full capacity has been used once. This doesn't have to happen all at once. Suppose you use 50% of the power bank today and 50% tomorrow, that together constitutes one full charge cycle.

How many charge cycles does a power bank last?

A charge cycle means that the power bank's full capacity has been used once. This doesn't have to happen all at once. Suppose you use 50% of the power bank today and 50% tomorrow, that together constitutes one full charge cycle.

Tips to extend the life of your power bank?

After many charge cycles, the capacity gradually decreases. The power bank can then store less energy and therefore delivers fewer full charges to your devices. This is a normal wear and tear process for power banks.

To ensure your power bank lasts as long as possible, you can pay attention to the following points:

Do not always charge the power bank to 100% full or completely empty.
Store the power bank at room temperature. If it is very cold, the battery may be damaged.
Use a suitable charger for the power bank
