Things to Avoid
Always be careful when handling power banks. Try your best not to drop this. The device is made up of very fragile components. They can be easily broken or damaged if dropped or mis-treated. As BuyaBattery would advise with any battery or battery-related accessory, handle with care.
To carry your power bank on you, avoid placing this in a pocket or bag which is also holding metal objects. The proximity to metal could short the output, even if your device has a button to enable power supply, it is best to be careful.
Prolong the Life of Your Power Banks
