Dos and Don’ts When You Use a Power Bank 
Like Us on Facebook
Modern gadgets are power hungry. Our increasingly busy lives mean a dead battery can leave you disconnected from life, work, and your daily routine. Portable chargers and power banks will keep you from getting stranded when you’re on the go and without a convenient charging source. They are ideal for recharging your smartphones and similar devices wherever you are when you find yourself low on power.


As with all electrical and electronic devices, it’s important to treat them with respect and care to ensure they continue to work properly and safely.

With this in mind, we advise you to think about some general Dos and Don’ts to help keep you safe when using power banks and portable chargers:





1. Do use the power pack only for its intended use. E.g. to recharge your mobile phone or other USB powered mobile devices.
2. Do keep away from heat sources and liquids - direct sunlight, humidity or water.
3. Do only use connecting cables provided with the battery pack and your mobile device.
4. Do supervise children using battery packs.





1. Don’t expose to extreme temperatures of hot or cold.  For example, do not leave it in a parked car where it could get very cold in winter or very hot in summer.
2. Don’t leave a battery on prolonged charge when not in use.
3. Don’t store battery packs where they may short-circuit by conductive material - such as in your pocket or bag with coins or keys.
4. Don’t drop or roughly handle battery packs. They are robust but not indestructible.
5. Don't cover when charging. Charge in a well-ventilated environment.
6. Don't charge battery packs overnight or whilst you are out of the house. Most portable battery packs do not support charging and discharging at the same time.
7. Don’t dismantle or attempt to repair faulty battery packs.
In the event of a cell leaking, don't allow the liquid to come into contact with the skin or eyes. If contact has been made, wash the affected area with water and seek medical advice.

Note: Most power banks and bars use lithium-Ion chemistry batteries that will naturally get warm due to high currents flowing during charge and discharge cycles.  It is normal for them to feel warm to touch, but if they are too hot to handle, do not use and seek advice from the manufacturer.

Should power bank be charged full night for the first time? Mostly, when we buy a phone, we would unconsciously ask that how long to charge the phone for the first time? Likewise, when buy a power bank, we would ask ourselves the same question. So, how long to charge power bank for the first time? Same as the phone’s battery, the battery of power bank needs to be charged a bit longer before the first time using.  Taking Heloideo’s power banks for example, they are all made of Li-Ion battery. Nothing complicated, when charging the power bank, we could refer to the built-in LED indicators. Or Heloideo Dual USB Ports 11000mAh Power Bank, it has 4 LED indicators, thus each one is for 25% power on average. Is that full of charge when all 4 indicators are on? When contacting with Heloideo power bank product managers and engineers, it’s not that kind of situation. Actually, when 4 indicators are on, there’s only 95% power. Why? —— Firs...

How to Revive a Cell Phone Battery (2) Like Us on Facebook In a previous blog, I introduced a method of How to Revive a Cell Phone Battery. Now I will introduce you another method. Let’s go. Method 2--Freezing the Battery 1. Remove the battery from your phone. 2. Place it inside a sealed plastic bag in addition to a sealed plastic container. This will prevent it from getting wet. Do not use paper bags or foils as water can easily penetrate these materials. 3. Place the sealed battery inside the freezer, and leave it overnight or at least 12 hours.
