How can I charge my laptop with a powerbank?
A powerbank is useful when you need extra battery on the go, but charging a laptop works a little differently than charging a smartphone or earbuds. You may assume that any powerbank with a USB-C port can charge your laptop, but in practice it depends on how much power your laptop needs and how much output the powerbank can deliver. In this blog, we explain when it is safe to charge a laptop with a powerbank, why wattage matters and what to check before connecting your laptop. We also look at the Zens Powerbank Pro 1 10,000 mAh and the Zens Semi Solid State Powerbank 10,000 mAh, so it is clear what these powerbanks are designed for.
What is pass-through charging on a powerbank?
Pass-through charging is a useful feature on powerbanks, but not everyone knows exactly what it means. You may have seen the term in the specifications of a powerbank. Or maybe you have wondered whether you can charge a powerbank while charging your phone at the same time. In this blog, we explain what pass-through charging is, how it works and when it comes in handy. We also cover what to keep in mind when charging safely, such as heat build-up and using the right cables. This way, you know when pass-through charging is useful and how to use it properly with your powerbank.

Is wireless charging faster without a case?
Many people think that wireless charging doesn’t work with a phone case, but in most cases it works perfectly well. For the best magnetic alignment and charging experience, we recommend using a MagSafe-compatible case or a case with a built-in magnetic ring. Only thicker cases (over 3 mm) with extra drop protection or metal parts can sometimes pose an obstacle. For the best charging experience, we at Zens recommend removing this type of case.
