Anker Prime 27,650/20,000 Power Bank Q&A

[@anxiety_fitness]

Finally someone addressed the 27,000mah / 100wh flying thing. I went with the 20,000 prime because I couldn't find a straight answer and didn't want to take the risk. If the security agent only knew the 27000 figure and sees 27650, despite the 100wh figure, they would probably still deny it. I've learned that people are not always very pedantic and can make these kind of errors, so I didn't risk it.

[@glenie1955]

Can you tell me if it does simultaneous charging of a phone or any other chargeable unit as well as charging itself because they claim it does through charging? 10:15 10:17

[@NIK-n1m]

Where are the cable recommendations? cant see them in the description?

[@NoLifeStack]

What happens if you leave it on the charger past 100% does keeping it on the base affect the battery life or does it turn off internally and know that it’s at 100%

[@hxllxism]

Hello, So I recently purchased the Anker prime 27,000 mah (250 watts) powerbank and I set up the screen timeout clock display but it will not sync and just gives double digit times ex: 00:22 And not 8:32, 2:10, 9:10, etc, Does anybody know how to manually go in and like sync the clock to a phone? I have already looked through the app and have had no luck in finding a setting for the clock other than enabling it Please let me know if you have figured this out, Thanks!

[@RiPaDo77]

Is the 20K allowed for air travel?

[@tyronewalker5764]

You've answered all my airline questions. Thank you.😅

[@rawcircoking]

my laptop still says this power bank is too slow which makes no sense since this puts out 250w and the laptop charger is 150w. Im using the 140w max cable it came with. I have the 27,650 mah anker.

[@seewhyaneyesee]

I came here but couldn't find the explanation regarding the green dot on the Anker 27650 powerbank... When I double press the button, a green dot on the top left of the display comes on... any guess to what it could be?

[@tofikthegreatest4089]

The minimum current requirement (the lowest amount of power a device needs to draw from the battery so that it doesn’t turn off) for our battery is about 30mA to 90mA. When the required input of low-powered devices is less than the battery's minimum current requirement, there will be no current to charge the devices. You may check out our listings and see if your Anker power bank supports trickle charge mode. It provides safe and stable charging to low-power devices such as Bluetooth earphones and speakers. To activate it, press the button twice. The LED indicator will turn green, indicating that the trickle charging mode is on. It will turn off 2 hours later when unused.

[@JohnSmith-lv8xk]

How do you mitigate connecting two devices with usb c I/O ?

[@LeonaT-r6l]

Can you use solar panels to charge the anker prime 27000(plus) charger?

[@NiteKid2014]

Can I leave my Anker Prime 250W on the charging base all the time? Or I should take it off the charging base when it’s reaching 100%?

[@cpcarter72]

Is the PowerBank wifi capable? Also, I’ve only have had this PowerBank for a couple of days, I’m finding it difficult to connect via Bluetooth to my Apple devices.

[@GRUMPY41510]

Link to the gs24 ultra cables, please?

[@petryrety]

*Do we need to have supporting documents attesting to the fact that the power bank can be taken on the plane? From the declaration of conformity it does not appear that it complies with IEC 62281*

[@imnoone5069]

I was just looking into this. Under Size limits on the TSA site, it says 100 watt hours (Wh) max. per rechargeable battery. (Pretty sure "spare" batteries are just loose batteries and doesn't apply to power banks.) The specs. including "99.54Wh" is listed on the bottom of the Anker. You need a magnifying glass to see it but it's there. I'm going to find out if this is good enough for TSA in a few days. Hope this helps.

[@v1nce502]

Nope. The bottom of the power bank says the Watt hours as the other person has said

[@oal2928]

they make no sound, but overheat within 15 minutes, if thats better for you, and deliver 50-70'% lower power.

[@Bikepacking]

The main question i have how faster does it charge from zero to 100% using 2 cables inputs

[@oal2928]

takes 5 minutes for the charger to overheat, and the overheat breaker hits, if you charge 2 items at 100w.

[@Bikepacking]

@ what charger you using to charge the battery bank with thanks

[@oal2928]

@Bikepacking the 12k, 20k, but they all behave this way, this is a fast charger/discharge. You use this for laptops mainly, not to charge a phone like most payed advertisers show.

[@Bikepacking]

@@oal2928thanks just interest in how fast the battery it self charges at I here 37 minutes with 175 wats wall charger for the big one

[@djradman6794]

Will you be making a real life test for the anker 20,000 prime battery pack too? Would like to see one similar to your 27,650 video

[@NickAsselberghs]

Thank you very much sir, both for this video and the other one, that you referred to in the beginning of this one.

[@toetie2019]

Weird question, are the ports on the powerbank still active when you place it down on the charging dock? Could you use that as passthrough charging? I really wish there was a cable version of the pogo pin chargers so you’d have another port

[@douglasmontgomery6315]

I read that while on charging dock, the bank ports are disabled. however, off the dock, the phwerback does support passthrough charging.

[@stoned4life503]

When you double click button a green dot pops up on right side of screen what does that mean

[@v1nce502]

Trickle charging mode

[@ΣτέργιοςΜπαιραχταρης]

Can this one charge supervooc i have the realme 11 pro plus

[@raysonrodriguez7215]

Well I have an answer for some of my OnePlus people in the USA..yes it does supervooc at 65w. With the original OnePlus cable in the usb A port.. these two anker products are the only one they took advantage of their licensing of supervooc..

[@ope314]

I used the provided cable and it still didn't deliver fast charging for my S23 or laptop. Hovered around 10w. The solutions online about different cables, resetting, and firmware updates didn't work. Any suggestions?

[@tyjames8365]

I'm having the same issue with my iPhone 16, did you ever find a solution ?

[@cutscurves8411]

This video is really really helpful just love it❤

[@adrian-f9g]

Hi, do they both have Bluetooth and can be connected to the Anker app, or is it just the larger one (250w)?

[@TheMuddatrucker]

Only the larger (250w) has the Bluetooth feature. Just got my 200w today, out of the three - the 200w seemed the best physically sized one for me.

[@ujingan9697]

The Anker 27650 mah allows in many airport customs ? Any restrictions ? Hope to hear from you soon thx😊

[@daito12]

He said in the video that there’s no restrictions with 27650 mah Anker Prime 5:07

[@TheChaseFiore]

"Not based on an algorithm," proceeds to explain the algorithm.

[@dr12339]

does it support vooc changing?

[@raysonrodriguez7215]

Yes it does on the USB A it goes at 65 supervooc..you do need the original one plus cable... Y you say you need the 6A and up cable.. to get full potential..the USB A is on 10v at 6.5A to get the supervooc at 65w

[@JemmaYang-oi2wx]

Wow, this is very useful. Thank you

[@michellemonroe223]

Great review, thank you!

[@AlexanderQuintero-nm8ic]

This is what the power bank is saying when put on the charging stand/base The power bank cannot be used when recharging on the stand. I am in the process of getting a replacement Please share if anyone else is having the same problem/issue Thanks

[@camaralamine9746]

It is normal that it cant be use when charging on the base but it can be use when charging from plug

[@davidjapri5947]

I have 27650mah model, when 0% while discharge other device, suddenly it trying to suck battery from my other device, it this normal or not?

[@terryxperry]

No there a problem with the power bank

[@Windows98R]

That might be USB PD behavior. I’ve had my MacBook pull power from my iPhone when the MacBook got too low.

[@gabrielthompson8933]

You forgot to put the cable suggestions!

[@djradman6794]

Hi can you also charge the smaller 20,000 battery with both usb inputs? Thinking of the smaller for traveling n if its a bit lighter

[@LucWijdeveld]

There were some good questions! I have the 20 and the 27, but also the previous one, the 737. The 100 watt chargers were never available for the Netherlands, at least I never saw them at Amazon NL. Coincidentally, Anker had a 2 day Prime offer on their own website, where you had to buy 2 for less than the price of 1. So I ordered and it was delivered quickly, not at home as DHL normally does, but at a collection point.

[@en-dooz]

I'm curious to know your thoughts on the different models you own. How do they compare in terms of: Charging speed: Do you notice a significant difference between the 20, 27, and 737 models? Battery life: How long do they typically last on a single charge? Portability: Which one do you find most convenient to carry around? Features: Are there any specific features you prefer in one model over the others? Feel free to share your experiences and any specific questions you have about these power banks.

[@LucWijdeveld]

@@en-dooz To be honest, I never pay attention to how long it takes to charge. I need 2, that's why I have 3, the third is the change battery. If 1 of the 3 is empty, I start charging, I always choose medium fast charging, fast charging is not that good (they say). Then I walk away from that, never paying attention to it. Anker is good quality, I have never had anything from Anker break, but I take good care of my things. I love those two fast chargers. There were some negative experiences with reviewers, but that's not me. My Samsung S21-FE and my Tablet the S9 Ultra are charged super fast by those Anker 100 chargers, they were very cheap in the Prime 2 day offer. I also have three Anker Solix (F1200, F2000 and the C1000), where I sometimes use the 100 watt chargers. I'm an Anker Fan old boy

[@Evochamp]

Hello and I must say, you’re the man that I’ve been waiting to see reviews from. Re the Prime 250, I know that I can charge a certain device in a certain time period via the App, but can I limit the watts going to a certain port (C1, C2 or 3) while charging my device?

[@phandroid]

The system automatically limits the power output based on the power draw of the device. If a laptop requests 100w or 50w, the output delivers whatever is asked of it

[@Evochamp]

But can I limit the output wattage to only 10 Watts for certain port?

[@stevenreinholt9903]

​@Evochamp There is a "Optimized Charging" section in the settings where you can specify timeframes throughout the day to limit either the input or output wattage, but you cannot specify a specific wattage input/output amount.

[@lthegr81]

Link for good cables?

[@SaeKi-et7bo]

A 22-watt external battery priced at 20 euros can also be recharged quickly. Moreover, if you opt for an external battery with a capacity of 5000 mAh, it can be recharged very quickly, in less than 1 hour, because 5000 mAh is not very long to recharge. Therefore, it is not necessary to purchase an external battery with 200 watts

[@phandroid]

The 200 watt rating is the rate of discharge for charging other devices. It can DELIVER 200 watts to your devices you are charging.

[@skullyjones8234]

A 20 € Powerbank is sh##. The display is crap ,it makes noises while charging, it will deplete quickly and it will only charge with 5 or 10 Watts and recharge with perhaps 10 to 15 W. So buy a better one.

[@skullyjones8234]

A 5000maH Powerbank sucks. Also a 10.000maH Powerbank. Bc it will NOT fully charge your most devices and it will charge slowly. So you will end up buying a Fast Charging Powerbank

[@osamah0809]

I have an anker prime power bank 20K, but unfortunately, it doesn't support samsung Super fast charging 2.0. What about 27k?

[@stevenreinholt9903]

I have the 27k and yes, it does support Super Fast Charging 2.0

[@RIP....]

U are worng about how many times u can charge the s24u

How so?

​@@RIP....That's not what my testing showed

[@RIP....]

[@krico135]

When I inputed 5000mAh at 100% into my Prime PowerBank settings, it says that it will only charge my S24 Ultra 3.5 times.

[@ClydeasterzVlogz]

Anker prime 20000mah cannot even fully charged one battery of my dji air 3 drone , so unfortunate ! . That was the main reason why i bought this anker prime , but i guess its totally useless for my air 3 batteries . Even just one battery but still it cant fully charged hais

[@SaeKi-et7bo]

une batterie externe a 22watt a 20 euros peu aussi se recharger rapidement en plus si vous prenez une batterie externe a 5000 mah sa se recharge très rapidement en moins de 1 heures car 5000 mah ses pas ultra long a recharger donc ses pas obligé que l'on achète une batterie externe a 200watts
