The form factor of portable chargers is a very important thing when you’re purchasing power banks depending on the size and design of it, it can either be easy or difficult to carry around.

There are power banks that are very small and can easily fit into your pocket, others cannot because of their larger power capacities. With that said, even higher power capacity power banks are being made to fit as much power into a small size as much as possible.

Since power banks, in general, are supposed to be portable power without being too much of a hassle to carry around.

This is the Innogie JA Portable charger that has a 10,400mAh power capacity and even though that’s quite a lot of power, the size and design of it can be quite frustrating to carry around.

Power Capacity:

The power capacity of the Innogie JA Portable charger starts at 10,400mAh and the conversion of power is better than most power banks because it uses LG batteries that can provide more power to transfer over to your device during charging.

There’s still the loss of energy that stays normal when the power goes through the charging cable through. As a result, you’re going to average about 8,320mAh of Output power capacity that you’ll be able to use.

Charging Smartphones with the Innogie Power Bank

It’s with this power capacity that you’ll be able to charge most smartphones about 4 times. Take, for example, you’ll be able to charge an iPhone 6s about 5 full times.

Or if you’re charging an Android device, that generally has a larger battery capacity like the Google Pixel at its 2,770mAh battery capacity, then you’ll be able to get 3 full charges. So this power bank is perfect for charging smartphones because it can charge them many times.

Charging Tablets with the Innogie Power Bank

Moving onto tablets, even with a power bank that can charge smartphones a few times over, the Innogie power banks can even charge tablets a few times as well, with 2 full charges being the magic number.

If you’re charging Mini tablets like the Galaxy Tab A series or Galaxy Tab 4, then you’ll be able to get 2 full charges. Charging Apple Mini tablets like the iPad Mini 2 or 4 is going to result in about 1.5 charges because they have slightly higher power capacities.

Lastly, if you want to charge a Full-Sized tablet, then the Innogie comes close to delivering a full charge because a Full-Sized iPad that’s 12-inches big has a power capacity of 10,000mAh and it’ll be able to charge about 80% of the way.

Output Charging:

There are 2 USB Output charging ports on the Innogie power bank and each of them has a charging speed of 5V/2.4A and that sounds good if you’re charging only a single device with it.

That’s because the power bank has a Max Output of 5V/2.4A as well, so if you’re charging 2 devices at once, with the power bank using its Max Output of power, then each of the charging ports is going to Output 5V/1.2A and that’s a slow charging speed.

It’s not to say that charging 2 devices with the power bank is bad, it’s just best to do so if you’re charging 2 smartphones at the same time.

With that said, we like that the Max Output of power is shared throughout each of the 2 charging ports, and if you’re charging a tablet alone like an iPad then it’ll be able to charge at its max charging speed of 2.4 Amps.

Input Charging:

The Innogie power bank is recharged through a  Micro-USB input port that has a max recharge rate of 5V/2.0A, and when you use a 2 Amp Wall Charger, then it’ll be able to recharge to its full power within 5-6 hours.

Design

Size and Weight:

This is where things can get a bit awkward because the power bank is quite large with its thickness.

It has a length of 4 inches, a width of 2.2 inches, and a thickness of 1.6 inches. The weight of the charger is 9.5 ounces.

So even though the power bank is small because it has a short length and width, the large thickness can make it difficult to carry it around because you’re only going to be able to carry it in your hand and put it into a bag. Not exactly surprising but it’s still quite bulky.

Functional Components:

There are 2 sides of the Innogie power bank that holds the main functions. On one there’s an Alien looking face that has 4 Blue LED power capacity indicators and 2 Red lights that are eyes for the alien face

Then on the other side, there’s 2 USB Output charging ports and a Micro-USB Input port.

There’s absolutely no power button because charging automatically starts when you plug a device into the power bank and stops when there aren’t any devices connected anymore.

This is odd though because a lot of power banks that do automatically start charging, still have a power button to check power capacity when they’re not being used.

Build

Structure and Material:

The entire power bank is made of plastic but it’s not brittle because the casing is all packed closely together and it’s thick as well.

Tech:

On the tech side, the Innogie power bank makes use of the regular safety that you’d expect to keep you and your devices safe. However, the most useful kind of tech is the usage of LG batteries that can provide better conversion of power during charging, and they also offer more charges in the long run.

Reliability

We think that the Innogie power bank is very useful for your charging needs when you’re out and about. If there’s one main flaw, is that you can’t charge 2 devices at the same time and expect fast charging speeds for the 2 devices that are charging, since the Max Output of power is low at just 2.4A.

Other than that the conversion of power is great because the power bank can provide multiple charges not only to smartphones but also to tablets as well. It’s a small but thick charger that can be taken anywhere too.

Summary:

Power:

The power capacity is really good even when it goes through conversion, but the charging speed could use some work.

Design:

It’s a small power bank but the thickness is what makes it rather bulky. There’s no power button because the Innogie power bank solely relies on its automatic charging capabilities.

Build:

It has a solid build that is perfect for everyday use and tough enough to survive shortfalls.

Reliability:

The Innogie power bank is a great daily use charger that can provide multiple charges and superb portability.

Conclusion:

If there’s anything that we’ve learned about reviewing power banks, it’s that nearly all of them have their flaws.

In this case, nearly everything about the Innogie power bank is great but the thickness can be off-putting and once you experience charging 2 devices, then things can seem a bit mediocre. Although those aren’t exactly major problems, minor ones.
