  • Carging a Power bank with Laprop USB?

    From IusfetStrazasola@21:1/5 to All on Mon Nov 30 12:54:27 2015
    Greetings to all the NG. It's my firs post here.

    I've got this two stuffs:
    1) Lenovo laptop Z570.
    2) and this power bank http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B011DQ9GIQ?keywords=10000%20mah%20power%20bank&qid=1448887822&ref_=sr_ph&sr=1

    May I fully charge the power bank using the Laptop USB or there is the
    risk to damage the laptop or the power bank or both or to only
    partially charge the power bank?

    Many thank for your support.

    It should be fine to fully charge with the laptop...if you have USB 3 (some have only one port for USB 3) use that...it has a higher current rating (and of course, you must be plugged-in to AC!)
