When prices are too cheap, it's too good to be true and very likely to be fake with a smaller capacity. Open it up to inspect inside.

150000mAh for only $17.80? It's obviously fake with smaller capacity than printed on the box and seller didn't give a clear answer. There are scumbags who will actually buy it knowing that it's capacity is fake to scam others. :biggrin:

Surprise inside of a fake 10400 mAh power bank from China

This is fake Xiaomi power bank bought in Shanghai. Sold as 10400mAh. In reality it has two really cheap 18650 Li-Ion batteries and two fakes. After replacing batteries with original LG Li-Ion 2600mAh 18650 this little power bank can charge Sony Z1 Compact 4-5 times to 100% battery from below 10%.
Fake batteries are filled with sand which makes the unit heavier.

Podróbka powerbanku Xiaomi kupiona w Szanghaju. Sprzedawana jako 10400mAh ma w rzeczywistości dwa tanie ogniwa 18650 i dwie atrapy. Po wlutowaniu ogniw LG Li-Ion 2600mAh ten mały power bank jest w stanie naładować Sony Z1 Compact 4-5 razy do 100% baterii z poniżej 10%.
Podróbki baterii wypełnione są piaskiem aby dociążyć urządzenie.

They are all over the internet. Seller address is in China. True capacity is probably 1,250mAh - 5,000mAh :biggrin:

Fake batteries make noises when you shake it.. sounds like sand inside battery cylinders. Fake power bank contains 3 fake batteries and 1 original battery so when you shake a power bank it makes noises.

It's better to buy D.I.Y. power bank for 2 dollars on Ebay and D.I.Y. Then Google "How to make a power bank by yourself"
