During load shedding, a power bank rated 10,000mAh or higher keeps an iPhone charged through most outage windows — pair it with a genuine USB-C cable to ensure full charging speed even when running on battery power rather than mains.
Quick answer for outage-prone areas
Keep a power bank charged and ready before outages hit, using a genuine cable rated for at least 20W output so your iPhone charges at full speed from the power bank itself. Browse the Power Banks collection.
FAQs
Does a power bank charge an iPhone as fast as a wall charger? Only if the power bank itself outputs 20W+ via USB-C Power Delivery — many basic power banks output less, charging more slowly than a wall adapter.
Choosing a Power Bank for Load Shedding
| Capacity | Approx. iPhone Full Charges | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 10,000mAh | 2 full charges | Daily short outages |
| 20,000mAh | 4 full charges | Extended outages, multiple devices |
Keeping Your Power Bank Ready
Charge your power bank fully before expected outage windows — many households in Pakistan keep a dedicated power bank charged overnight specifically for scheduled load shedding hours.
Charging Speed From a Power Bank
A power bank with USB-C Power Delivery output charges an iPhone at similar speed to a wall charger; basic USB-A-only power banks charge more slowly and may not support fast charging at all.
