Questionable Capacity
EDIT -- Company has been contacting me saying they will pay me to remove this review.
The battery and solar functionality work in theory. That's why you see all of the giddy, 5 star reviews. The issue here is that the premium you're paying for the advertised capacity isn't worth it. Save your money and buy a 20,000mAh solar, power bank. No need to pay for 35,800 mAh when the battery you receive only holds ~15,000.
The seller either needs to change the mAh rating to reflect reality, or Amazon should take this listing down.
Original review:
Battery was powering an IoT device for less time than expected. I used a power monitor to measure mAh when recharging after the power bank was completely dead. Results showed the battery has a capacity of ~15,000 mAh and not the 35,800 mAh that's advertised.
I've reached out to the seller and am waiting for a response.
I suspect others haven't noticed this issue because of the manner with which they're using the battery.
