Good price per Ah, keep in mind that it exceeds the 100Wh limit that some tsa agents and airlines enforce for carry-on luggage (lithium batteries are not allowed in checked baggage)

Jeezus, lol if I'm going to lug somethibg this huge it better be able to charge a laptop. But 18w, probably won't.

Well I guess it might be able to maintain the battery level at least.

you'll get downvoted - but this brand is not accurate, at least in my unscientific testing of a smaller product.

Last time I ordered this - it was super light, had rattling stuff inside, and definitely did not match the capacity by a long shot.

but people will get downvote us for ruining the party - so carry on.

I'm curious which brands advertise what you guys think is a "correct" mAh capacity?

It seems many brands advertise the mAh based off of internal voltage of the cells inside the power bank. (which can be a sort of a sneaky way to market a product if people are thinking of 5 volts)
If you want to get a more accurate mAh rating for your devices, you need to know the voltage you are going to draw from the power bank and the watt-hours the power bank actually has.

With many manufacturers, you have to look up the product manual or go to the product's page on the manufacturers website to find what the watt-hours of the power bank are.
So for this power bank the website says it is 148 watt-hours (https://www.romosspowerbank.com/s...sb-type-c/)

That puts this bank at 40,000 mAh at 3.7 volts
(148) x (1,000/3.7) = 40,000

If you want to find the mAh rating for 5 volts it would be:
(148) x (1,000/5) = 29,600

Looking at an Anker product, for example Anker 525 Power Bank, they advertise the same way: 20,000 mAh
That looks like at 3.6 volts because the rated watt-hours is 72 according to the manual.
for 5v it would be 14,400 mAh

Someone please correct me if I've done something wrong.

You would have to measure one of these power banks and see if the rated watt-hours is correct. I don't have this Romoss product, but I do have the PHP30 Pro model sold as 111 watt-hours. It's pretty close to that from my testing. Reviews mention these things sometimes swell up. Mine hasn't yet and has worked well so far.

I do not see any kind of safety testing certification like UL on this.

Yup, consider it took a little bit over 5v to actually charge the phone anyway. So, it is going to be a little less than the calculated value (energy loss). The worst part is they list at 5v charging, but calculated/advertising using 3.7 volts and that is just fault advertising.

This brand undercuts mAh by a lot, I remember I few months back getting this particular model and it weighed the same as my 30,000 mAh unit from another brand. Misleading.

Don't buy Romoss junk! I bought a 30K few months ago. It arrived DOA. I exchanged for a replacement, fully charged and drained it for 3 cycles. The problem was once the battery pack down to 50%, the remaining 50% drained within an hour when charging my old iPad. There is no way the iPad drew so much power. 50% supposed to be 15K mAh theoretically. I then exchanged it one more time but the same problem persisted. I was out of patience and finally just asked for a refund.
