Powerbank is no longer charging - this may be the reason

First aid: Powerbank no longer charges

• First, try charging the power bank using a different USB cable. Another power adapter can also work wonders.
• In some cases, lint and other dirt can collect in the charging socket. Open a paper clip and use it to clean the charging socket extremely carefully.
• If the power bank is not completely empty, simply unload it. To do this, use up the entire battery and then fully charge it.

Powerbank no longer charges: exchange through guarantee

• Power banks have become a mass product in recent years. Very cheap power banks therefore sometimes leave something to be desired in terms of quality. After several months and years, a battery can quickly give up the ghost.
• As a rule, you are entitled to the statutory warranty obligation of one year. If the power bank is not yet older, contact the dealer or the manufacturer directly. In most cases there is an exchange.
