Are 5 Below 5000mah Power Banks any good? is it really 5000mah?

In this video I run a test to see if the 5000mah power bank from 5 below is really a 5000mah power bank. I also explain if its a good to use with your devices.

Can you charge it up why the light stay red do it ever turn green or blue

If you know anything about lipo batteries you shouldn't store them above 30% capacity otherwise they swell.
So I'm guessing when you get them flat it's because of the shelf life before being bought they are slowly discharging over months of sitting in the store waiting to sell..
You never fully charge any lipo to sit over 3 months or it will kill it...
If you are going to store any lipo over three months don't fully charge it !!!
30% lasts for at least 2-3yrs on a shelf...

store it at 3.8Volts to be exact. There's special smart chargers that can do that for you if anybody is wondering. These are cheap batteries so I doubt they can hold their charge for long. That's why I get them below voltage. That was the point of this video, these are cheap batteries and will die pretty fast so I do not recommend. They are a waste of money IMO. Better to buy something else.

It’s from 5 and below of course they aren’t going to be fully charged and I have bought other ones from other places and they weren’t fully charged so it doesn’t matter where u buy it

The ones I get from amazon are much better at the same price. And they are actually 5000mah. I will upload video about it later.

I have one do the three indicator lights ever all turn blue.

[@Its_jordanyk]

Same but actually last a really long time with one blue light

[@IndigoJas12]

Yeah mine was already messed up

[@tronicsquest6637]

The power banks at 5 below are junk. Most of their electronics are junk and now they raised their prices. I recommend the amazon power bank that is the same price. I will upload another video soon on the better power bank from amazon.
