This is most likely for the jumper cables.
The USB OUT port is completely different; it outputs power at 5V.
So if you're using only the USB out port, the yield from the battery will be:
11.1V ÷ 5V = 2.22
2.22 * 2150mAh = 4,773 mAh @ 5V." -Gas Ginser reviewer

The internal batteries are lithium, they shouldn't require charging every two weeks, NOCO recommends every 6 months, but most users are reporting that they have to charge it every month. Then again, if the discharge rate is that quick, every two weeks isn't crazy, but that tells you the poor quality of the batteries. not to mention the super low capacity at 2150mah vs other brands.
Use it to start trucks, cars and often times construction equipment…it is bad to the bone….I rarely charge mine in between jumps and often times neglect it. It has not ever let me down. A buddy of mine bought same one and loves it…did I mention I'm in Minnesota where it's even harder to start vehicles?
I've started 2 cars with this and both started easily.

You ever push start a bike? Even easier if you're on a group ride. Two guys give you a running shove, pop the clutch, and you're back on the road faster than it takes to hook this jumpstarter to your battery. If you can get the bike pointed downhill, you can easily push start a bike even by yourself under half a minute. It's a good skill to know if you're a rider.
With that being said, there has been times where I'm by myself, on flat ground, trying to push my heavy ass adventure bike to a running start, while wearing full protective gear in 90+ degree weather, where I would've killed for this Jumpstarter.
A cheap, china made GooLoo box (that was half charged and cold), turned it over without hesitation. This things externals look nice and seem well built, internals are weak.
