Why powerbank explode?

One of the expensive component or you may say the heart of the powerbank is the battery and it should be properly chosen for a good power bank. Some powerbank company uses recycled battery or the Lithium-ion battery. These are one of the prime factors for the explosion.

Usually, people leave their powerbank charging for long hours even their powerbank is fully charged. Actually, this factor not only helps in preventing from the explosion but also help in increasing your power bank battery life. Not only power bank battery life but any battery life you are using in your daily day to day life. The battery should be only charged only if is fully discharged.
Charging your battery more often can decrease your battery life too. Exposing your power bank to high temperature can lead to an explosion of your powerbank. In some powerbank there is a circuit for voltage control. This prevents in the situation when a large voltage is supplied as an input to the power bank.
See buy a powerbank after knowing each and everything about the powerbank as the explosion of power bank can lead to a regrettable moment in anybody’s life. So below I am going to list down a few features which you must see before buying any powerbank.
Types of battery
It is very necessary to have an idea about the type of battery present in your power bank. Usually, powerbank have Li-polymer battery.
Overcharge protection

Power Output
Different gadgets have different power requirements like smartwatch or fitness band they usually need less power. Phone with smart charging usually needs more power than a general phone for charging. So, do check power output of the powerbank before buying the powerbank if your phone support fast charging or you have other gadgets like smartwatch or fitness band.
Number of ports
It is the most prominent features which people usually care but in a wrong way. I don’t know Why? Having more number of the port doesn’t make your powerbank cool. If you only have a single gadget and you want more number of ports then it is meaningless. As I already asked you to answer a question about how many gadgets you can charge at a time. For many people, it’s just one. So, for those people, you don’t need to see for the number of ports that are there.
Short circuit protection
Another important feature which can’t be ignored. You must see for this feature if you think safety for your phone. Because if some malfunctioning happens then it may cost you your phone.
