Anker 737 power bank was tested at CairoVolt's warehouse in New Cairo 3 at 37°C and ran a WE VDSL router for 14 hours 22 minutes continuously without restart — a real result from an Egyptian environment unavailable anywhere else.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a 20000mAh power bank allowed on a plane?▼
Yes. A 20,000mAh power bank = 74Wh, which is well below the 100Wh limit. Both the Anker PowerCore 20000 and Joyroom 20000 are fully flight-legal.
What's the maximum power bank capacity allowed on a plane?▼
Under 100Wh (≈27,000mAh) is allowed without approval. 100-160Wh requires airline pre-approval. Over 160Wh is completely banned.
Why are power banks banned from checked luggage?▼
Lithium batteries can undergo thermal runaway (catch fire). In carry-on, crew can respond immediately. In the cargo hold, a fire could be catastrophic.
What's the best power bank for air travel?▼
Anker PowerCore 10000 — sufficient for a full phone charge, only 37Wh (passes any airport in the world), weighs just 180g, and supports fast charging.
