This $12 Power Bank Can Fast Charge Your Nintendo Switch or Apple iPhone 16
The best power bank deal of the day.
Inexpensive power bank deals come and go quickly, but there are so many brands and models out there that there's always at least one very good deal at any given moment. Today, that deal is the Iniu 10,000mAh Power Bank for only $12.58 after you apply promo code "TOLCL4RN". The 22.5W of Power Delivery is ideal for charging an iPhone 16 or Nintendo Switch at or close to their fastest rate. This particular power bank has nearly 28,000 reviews on Amazon with a 4.6 star average and an excellent Fakespot "A" rating.
Iniu 20,000mAh 65W USB Power Bank for $12.58
The Iniu power bank measures 4.1" x 2.6" x 1" and weighs 8 ounces. Iniu claims it is "the market's smallest 10,000mAh power bank". It's small enough to fit in your pocket or a small bag or sling. Below are the number of times you can recharge an iPhone 16 or gaming handheld with a 10,000mAh (37Whr) battery. I factor in 80% efficiency from power conversion and circuit resistance, which is a reasonable estimate for power banks in general.
- Apple iPhone 16/Pro (14Whr) about 2.1 times
- Apple iPhone 16 Plus/Pro Max (18Whr) about 1.6 times
- Nintendo Switch (16Whr) about 1.9 times
- Steam Deck (40Whr) about 0.75 times
- Asus ROG Ally (40Whr) about 0.75 times
- Lenovo Legion Go (50Whr) about 0.6 times
The Iniu power bank has three output ports: one 22.5W USB Type-C port and two USB Type-A ports that support QuickCharge 4+. That's enough to charge the Nintendo Switch at its fastest rate, which is 18W. It will also charge the iPhone 16 at nearly its fastest rate (ChargerLAB has shown that the maximum rate caps at 30W for the Pro Max).
