Portable Battery Pack - 5000 mAh - TEM-P2-5000

Portable Battery Pack Experience

I found a portable battery pack on sale at Lotte World for 11,000 Won. The price was low, likely due to its fixed adapter for Mini-USB / Lightning connections, which will soon become obsolete as USB-C becomes the standard. However, for now, most of my devices still use these connections.

Initial Impressions

I'm pleased with the much larger capacity of 5,000 mAh, especially since I was previously relying on a smaller 2,200 mAh battery pack. I’m not a fan of the massive 10,000 mAh or larger models, so I thought this one would be more than sufficient for my brief trips.

Update (9/10/18)

Unfortunately, my experience took a turn for the worse. This battery pack has proven to be quite disappointing! Other than a blinking blue light, there’s no indication of how much charge remains. It also doesn’t seem to recharge properly; after a few minutes, it just stops blinking. I found myself needing to reconnect the charging cable repeatedly, and each time it only works for a few minutes before stopping again.

In hindsight, I regret choosing a cheap option and will be more cautious in the future. Lesson learned: avoid buying low-quality products!
