The standard power banks consist of a casing, a battery, charging ports, and in some cases, a charging cable. Other larger models can have more intricate features. The battery inside the power bank allows you to store electrical energy and then later use it to recharge your devices.

The important thing is to remember to keep your power bank charged.
