RAVPower 20000mAh PD 60W Review
The RAVPower 20000mAh is a compact, stylish, and portable power bank that can provide charges for most of your devices (including laptops!) when you’re on the go or just on vacation. It supports various charging capabilities, including the 60W PD output, which is rare for a portable charger. With its wide compatibility features in mind, it also comes packed with safety features to ensure your battery pack doesn’t get damaged while charging. The USB-A port can power up any Apple and Android devices, including laptops, which may come in very handy.
Unboxing Video
Charging Technology
RAVPower’s power bank contains a massive 20000mAh capacity, storing enough power for multiple charges of average smartphone batteries.
The battery pack is compatible with PD and iSmart fast charging technologies. It can support charging Apple products via the USB-C port connected to a lightning cable (not included). The USB-A port allows any iPhone to power up with the iPhone’s OEM lightning cable, which is also not included. Meanwhile, the Quick Charging 18W max output can be used with smartphones that support the QC protocol for extremely fast power-up. This will only work if the QC port is the only one in use.
USB-C PD 60W port supports a variety of electronic devices such as laptops, smartphones, tablets, and other gadgets. You can hook the MacBook Pro, Dell XPS, iPad Pro, iPhones, digital cameras, and finally, a Nintendo Switch to the battery pack.
The power bank also supports simultaneous charging with a total output of 60W when powering two devices. When only one device is connected, the PD output can reach up to 60W max. The option to fast-charge your smartphone and laptop simultaneously is readily available, thanks to the PD and QC port working together.
The RAVPower 20000mAh can charge in around 3 hours, which is very quick for its capacity, provided you use a PD wall charger such as the RAVPower 61W GaN technology wall charger. But if you charge the power bank with a regular 5V/2.4A non-high speed wall charger, then the charging time will go up to around 12 hours. So it would be a very good idea to invest in a fast charger if you plan on owning this power bank for a long time.
Pass-through charging is also supported by the device but with limited speed. It’s still very handy for situations when you need to charge both your power bank and another device simultaneously.
Portability
The RAVPower 20000mAh is a lightweight, portable device, measuring 6” long, 2.6” wide, and 1” thick, which is small enough to fit into your pocket or your backpack. Similar in size to the S9 Android smartphone, it’s easy to carry around whenever you’re on the go or planning a vacation because it weighs only 14.6 ounces and it won’t take up much room.
It’s safe to take on a flight with you since it has 74Wh on the power bank, which is below the 100Wh restriction set by the TSA.
Compared to other battery packs of the same class, the RAVPower 20000mAh is a tad smaller, but also similar in weight to other such devices. It rivals similar power banks manufactured by the same company in terms of power capacity and size.
Look and Feel
This power bank model is made of slick plastic with ribbing on each side, making it look sleek in design. It can hide scratches quite well. The device only comes in black, so color options are limited.
The covering is well constructed, with a design that fits the eye. RAVPower’s logo is centered on the back of the portable charger, in a black finish. The rounded corners allow it to have an easy ‘feeling’ when it’s set on a flat surface or when it’s being carried around, ensuring it won’t slide off and become damaged.
On the side of the device, you will find four LED lights that indicate how much power is left in the battery, providing ease of access and readability. The two ports, USB-C and USB-A, can be found on the bottom of the case, offering an easier place to insert the cords relevant to each port.
Durability & Build Quality
RAVPower 20000mAh comes bundled with safety in mind, so your device can’t get damaged from electrical power. Some features include overcurrent, short-circuit, over-discharge, and high-temperature protection to keep your device completely safe while charging.
The warranty that comes with the device is pretty decent too, providing support if it gets damaged or if it’s defective. If it’s defective, RAVPower will replace the device with either the same or a comparable product at no cost to you. The 18-month warranty can be extended by 12 months, resulting in a 30-month warranty. The warranty covers the power banks and cables.
My Experience With the RAVPower 20000mAh
Using the RAVPower 20000mAh 60W power bank has been a game-changer for me. Each morning, as I grab my bag, I make sure this compact lifesaver is inside. The design is sleek and it’s surprisingly lightweight given its large capacity.
Throughout the day, I find its dual USB-C and USB-A ports incredibly handy. Whether I’m charging my laptop during a long meeting or giving my phone a quick boost on the go, the 60W output ensures that my devices charge up swiftly. I’ve even been able to power up my laptop and smartphone simultaneously without any noticeable slowdown in charging speed.
While the RAVPower 20000mAh capacity might sound like an overkill for some, for a power user like me, it’s perfect. It means I can get through a weekend trip without needing to find an outlet. In fact, it has saved me from countless situations where outlets were either unavailable or inconveniently located.
The only minor gripe I have is its size. It’s not the smallest power bank on the market, so if you have smaller pockets or a tiny purse, it can be a bit bulky. But considering the trade-off in capacity and charging speed, it’s a sacrifice I’m more than willing to make.
In the months I’ve been using the RAVPower, it’s proven to be durable, reliable, and a genuine asset to my daily life. It’s one of those devices that, once you’ve experienced the convenience, you wonder how you ever managed without it.
