If the patients with low battery panic are reborn by the power bank, they will not panic when they go out with the power bank. If they forget to bring the power bank, they will become unnatural. They are essential peripheral accessories for digital devices, and have evolved with digital devices. At present, many derivative routes have been iterated for different occasions and uses.
In addition to the power bank, you need to take the data cable when you travel, wrap it up and store it. The data cable makes travel cumbersome. One of the branches of the development route of Power Bank was born for the pain point of data line carrying. They are data line free Power Bank.
Xiao Bian has sorted out three types of data-line-free charging bank schemes on the market, and selected three representative brand models in the market, namely: Lvlian self-wired charging bank, ANKER MagGo magnetic absorption wireless charging bank, and iWALK direct plug-in charging bank, to introduce the advantages and disadvantages of each data-line-free scheme.
Self-contained cable charging bank
The biggest difference between the built-in power bank and the ordinary power bank is the integration of the data line. The built-in power bank is the same as the common "shared power bank" on the market. Generally, storage slots are set on both sides of the shell or the rear cover. The data line can be placed in the slot at ordinary times, and the external power bank does not need to carry cumbersome cables separately.
In terms of performance, Lvlian's own cable charging bank (model: 20548) is made of Apple's MFi certified terminal head, which can provide the maximum 20W PD fast charging for the entire series of iPhone 8-14. The body is integrated with 1A1C interface, which also supports the fast charging function. In addition, USB-C cable style is also available for this model.
The size and weight of the built-in power pack are generally not different from those of the traditional power pack, which will not change the convenience of carrying. The same is true for the battery life. The capacity of the self-powered rechargeable battery that is popular on the market is generally between 10000mAh and 20000mAh, with strong battery life. This is its advantage as well as its disadvantage. The power pack with its own cable is relatively large in weight and volume when it is carried with the mobile phone.
Magnetic absorption wireless charging bank
Magnetic-absorbing wireless charging bank is mainly developed for iPhone 12/13/14 series. These Apple phones have MagSafe Magnetic-absorbing wireless charging function on the back. Magnetic-absorbing wireless charging bank is based on ordinary charging bank, adding wireless charging module and magnetic components, so that it can be adsorbed on the back of iPhone to charge, thus directly eliminating the trouble of data cable.
ANKER MagGo magnetic absorption wireless charging bank (model: A1611) has built-in magnetic components and wireless charging module, which can provide 7.5W wireless charging at most, and has USB-C wired interface, supporting 12W wired charging. ANKER MagGo magnetic absorption wireless charging bag is only 12.8mm thick and weighs only 140g. It can still maintain high portability when it is carried with the mobile phone. It also integrates a folding bracket on the body shell, which can be used as a mobile phone bracket after being pulled up to facilitate playing with the mobile phone while charging.
In terms of battery life, the built-in battery capacity of ANKER MagGo Magnetic-absorbing Wireless Charger is 5000mAh, which can charge the iPhone 13 Pro from 0% to 84%. It is mainly suitable for short-distance light travel.
In-line charging bank
The direct-plug charging bank has a very unique integrated plug design. It integrates Lightning or USB-C male connector on the body to get rid of the trouble of data cable, and can directly charge mobile phones, tablets, wireless headphones and other devices without cables.
The iWALK In-line Charger (model: DBL4500) pursues the optimization and portability. Its volume is about the same as lipstick and lighter, and its weight is only 92g. It is small, light and portable. In terms of performance, the integrated plug provides 5V1.5A power output, and the USB-C charging interface on the side supports 5V1.5A input.
The portable internal battery capacity of iWALK In-line Charger is 4500mAh, and the rated output capacity is 2700mAh (5V1.5A), which can support the power demand of mobile phones for more than half a day. In the face of longer endurance in high-load situations, the power is still insufficient.
This comparison of advantages and disadvantages of the cable-free charging bank selects three representative models of three common schemes on the market, namely, the Green Link 20548 with its own cable scheme, the ANKER A1611 with magnetic absorption wireless charging scheme, and the iWALK DBL4500 with integrated plug. The advantages of the three products are different, covering different use scenarios.
The weight and volume of Lvlian's own line charging bank are not superior because it is based on the integrated data line of the traditional charging bank. The battery has large capacity, outstanding durability, and rich interfaces. The cable is made of MFi certified terminals, and the USB-C cable version is optional, which supports two-way fast charging.
ANKER magnetic absorption wireless charging bank is developed for iPhone user group, which is not recommended by other mobile phone users. Its flat volume adsorption charging can still maintain high portability with the mobile phone, and is suitable for short trips. It also has a foldable bracket to facilitate charging while playing.
The battery capacity of the iWALK plug-in rechargeable battery is low, which is not suitable for users with long endurance and high load. The weight of less than 100g has no pressure. Lightning and USB-C plugs are optional and compatible. The price of less than 100 yuan is outstanding.
