They are 2x 2500mah packs. If you dig into the details of the product it's advertising the specs wrong. I still bought the Costco one a few weeks ago and don't regret it with their superior return policy

I do not need the packs since i am using this as UPS for my network rack - want something small and lightweight and can swith over in 10 secs or less -- i have this connected to an UPS with nut server and get best of both worlds (long run time and graceful shutdown)

The bundle I purchased in-stores for 199 came with 5000mah each, make sure to purchase the costco bundle is river 3 plus bundle and not older model

Check your battery back under the little kickstand (or your packaging if you still have it). See the attached picture where it list the capacity as 5000 mAh (2500 mAh x2 pc)

The reason for the confusion is the voltage is different than your typical 5k mAh power bank. This is exactly why we don't rate power stations in amp hours because it's meaningless without knowing the voltage. However if you do the math you'll notice with the voltage being double of your typical 5K, the actual capacity (watt hours) is the same. So they call it a 5k because it's the same capacity as all the other 5k ones, even though it's technically 2500 mAh.
