Power bank selection guide and Baseus 145W model features
When selecting a power bank, users should prioritize charging standards and power output, especially if intending to charge laptops alongside smartphones. For high-demand devices, look for support for USB Power Delivery (standards 3.0 or 3.1) with optional Programmable Power Supply (PPS), or Quick Charge 4.0 or higher.
One notable option is the Baseus EnerGeek GR11, which features a 20,000 mAh capacity and a total maximum output of 145W when multiple devices are connected. It includes a built-in retractable USB-C cable capable of delivering up to 100W to a single device, making it suitable for many laptops, including MacBooks. The device also provides two USB-C ports and one USB-A port, allowing for the simultaneous charging of up to four devices. It features a 1.2-inch display to monitor battery levels and real-time power parameters for each output.
