_Krypton_ Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Got the Mi Power bank ( 10400 mAh ) today. Have a few questions - - How do I charge it ( can I use my Mi3 front adapter with power bank's cable ) - How much time does it take to fully charge - is there a way I can charge my macbook pro retina with it ?

ALPHA17 Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) ^ Answers, sequentially, No, use a standard micro-USB charger to charge it. Using your mi3 charger with a micro-USB cable is also cool. I generally leave it over-night (~5 -->8 hours) No Edited October 13, 2014 by ALPHA17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Krypton_ Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Thanks alpha . Also is there an indication when the Power bank is fully charged ? If yes what is it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banz Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) Got the Mi Power bank ( 10400 mAh ) today. Isn't that overkill? I could charge my phone 8 times with that. If I used that to charge my DS Lite, I could run it for 200+ hours. Edited October 13, 2014 by Banz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALPHA17 Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Thanks alpha . Also is there an indication when the Power bank is fully charged ? If yes what is it ? All four LED's will flash steady indicating a full charge. Isn't that overkill? I could charge my phone 8 times with that. If I used that to charge my DS Lite, I could run it for 200+ hours. With the tawaa's that people like these days, not really, no. Also, you never know when it might come handy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banz Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) What's tawaa? Well it could come in hand in reeaaaallly looong trips. Or in some specific situations. Like if there's a cyclone and all the power lines and transformers are damaged and it would take a week to get them running again. It is human nature to hoard.

ALPHA17 Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 What's tawaa? A tawaa is anything over ~4.5" in size according me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALPHA17 Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Now , is the Mi power bank a good option for everyday charging ? Will it affect the battery life in any way whatsoever ? Yes, it is cool for a daily driver, although once a while charging the phone over-night / uninteruppted through the socket would be nice.

NitroNeo Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 (edited) Getting a Nokia 225, will any micro sd card work for it ? i want to buy a 16 GB one. If possible suggest me some good quality ones which will work smoothly with the phone, as my mom will use it.

ALPHA17 Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 (edited) ^ SanDisk or SAMSUNG microSD cards should work for you. It supports cards up-to 32GB. Edited October 16, 2014 by ALPHA17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
