Anker PowerCore 10000mAh

With a standard 5V/2A wall charger, it takes about 4 to 5 hours to completely recharge the Anker PowerCore 10000. However, the newer versions, like the PowerCore Speed 10000 PD, utilize USB Power Delivery (PD) and can recharge in roughly 3.5 hours when using an 18W charger. Anker includes an LED battery indicator that blinks to show the remaining capacity during charging.

Yes, the Anker PowerCore 10000 will charge a Nintendo Switch, though it will do so slowly if you are actively playing. The standard 10000 model outputs 2.4 Amps, which is enough to power the console in sleep mode or extend the battery life during gameplay. For the best results, you should use a model that includes a USB-C Power Delivery port.

The Anker PowerCore 10000 can typically charge an iPhone 13 or 14 about two full times from 0% to 100%. Because it stores 10,000 milliamp-hours (mAh), and standard iPhones have batteries around 3,000 to 3,500 mAh, you get roughly two to three full charges. Android phones with larger 5,000 mAh batteries will get slightly less than two full charges.

No, Anker does not include a USB wall adapter in the box with the standard PowerCore 10000; it only comes with a Micro USB or USB-C cable depending on the version. This was done to keep the cost and size of the product down for consumers. You can use the brick that came with your smartphone to recharge the battery pack.
