Deals that are available to the UK.

By your rationale, sites like Pixmania or amazon.de shouldn't be allowed either.

Why are you so hung up on your incorrect perception of what you think HUKD means?

Many overseas retailers are allowed on this site, e.g. DX, FocalPrice etc. Besides, it's a heads-up on a great deal as Xiaomi products tend to be a cut above the rest of this ilk. Suck it up and enjoy it!

I have used BangGood a lot in the last year and I will vouch for them. it was actually myself who put forward a lengthy email to the Admin at HUKD to allow deals from this merchant as they are genuine and have good support and better than many other Chinese resellers.

I have bought a lot of Xiaomi stuff online and many resellers including DX, ali and GearBest all stock way too many items that are copies.

I'm not saying these companies listed don't sell genuine items however they choose to stock copies as well. this makes buying genuine items a mine field as they tend to use different language to denote genuine and copies such as "authentic" or " genuine" however I personally ordered a replacement mi fit band from GB and it was listed as genuine with pictures however it arrived and it was a generic copy.

BangGood don't sell copies of Xiaomi stuff. if it says its Xiaomi its genuine and I have verified every purchase I have ordered through the xioami verification code or through knowledge of the product.

yes the items can take about 3 weeks to come however they are shipped from China. the powerbanks actually came in about 2 weeks so possibly being shipped through a different method due to it being a battery.

they also have good support. If you send them a message expect a reply in 48 hours its not instant but they are dealing with customers worldwide not just one country. they will come back to you.

I had an issue with a Xiaomi USB fan it just didn't work. they asked for a short video to show the issue. so took 2 mins to video it on my phone, upload to YouTube and send the link. 2 weeks later a new one arrived as a replacement.

it's a bit more work than a UK seller but you have to appreciate the price your paying is much lower and they have to protect their company from people just scamming them and lastly remember the size of their customers base.


overall I love BangGood for their honesty and reliable service. just don't buy things if you need it urgently, otherwise sit back and await your goods to arrive.

I would also say, don't bother with paying the extra for tracking, its not needed. every item has a barcode even if you don't pay which can be put into the 17 track website and it will give the location of the item if needed.

one of my Xiaomi earpieces took longer than I expected and emailed banggood they emailed me a tracking code (I didn't pay for tracking) turns out it was shipped 1day after my order was placed, arrived in the UK 5 days later and sat with freaking customs for 2 weeks. finally arrived at the start of the fifth week. unreal that it can make a trip around the world in five days and held up for 2 weeks in the UK.

it's also just been a Chinese national holiday so probably a bit busy fulfilling all the orders placed over this time. just fyi

Email them, they always refund for lost parcels.
Plus its only £0.86 for tracking.

This powerbank is exceptional for the price, unless youve one of the rare phones that can take 3a chargers now then this is the best you'll get.

Quality of the power cells, size, weight, build quality all outstanding.

Post should be removed due to overseas retailer...

Please don't buy. I never received my item. Been 33 working days

They don't. I'm being asked to wait. Its been 33 working days

Is that a hotukdeals or hotchinadeals site ?!

10.48 now

I've been using Banggood for ages but never saw a deal for them on here until yesterday, so have they just been allowed on HUKD or something?

Funny that, they pay out cashback (TCB) but not pay this site for clicks/traffic/sales that could potentially generate them huge amounts of business.

any risk of these blowing up?

This was posted abt a month ago, I bought one and in my opinion, it's one of the best and cheap, plus you can pay with PayPal.

this battery pack is a cut above those pricy ankers. you can't even get it at this price in China. loads of fakes around, I'd only buy direct from xiaomi

Hmmm banggood , sure mr lemon is waiting for the sister company bangtidy to release some chargers

Fantastic. Cheers OP. Just ordered a Yi from Banggood last week and it arrived ridiculously quickly. Great site.

Ordered a load more items last week as well so hopefully customs don't notice and delay everything.

Incorrect perception ? I had few deals pulled out because of campany beeing based outside of uk - thats what mod said in message ! Tyreleader is one of the best examples - great shop(EU based - not China) with cheap tyres but we cannot post deals from them !
Where is any mod to explain these things ? Shame...

6% Topcashback too. Great deal OP.

Generally speaking, HK/China-based companies are allowed here if they have a business address that passes muster. I posted a bunch of deals for banggood a few months ago that weren't allowed, so I'm assuming that they have either revised their policy on this vendor or a mod has let it slip through.

There is no list, as far as I know, for users to view regarding which sites are allowed or not, but there is certainly no blanket ban on businesses outside of the UK. it simply has be available in the UK, which is why things like BestBuy wouldn't feature here.

Even if this ends up getting pulled, it'd be a shame because it's a genuinely good deal. You're usually paying at around £2.50 per 2,500mAh of lithium goodness. Most non-brand Chinese chargers like this have vastly over-rated capacities and pretty shonky electronics, so this Xiaomi (Chinese equivalent of Apple, some people have said) represents fine value for money.

​ Ok, I get it and thank you for the explanation but please stop arguing about that. Let's spread the deal, if mods want to delete the post so let them delete it.

Yea, they ask you to check your local delivery office and ask you to wait a week.
After a week reply again and they will process a refund for you.

Ive had 3 go missing from Banggood, not there fault, seemed to have been an issue shipping to my old work addy. Least they refunded me tho.

Can this banggood be trusted? Ive seen some ridiculously cheap clothes advertised on there and they look pretty nice too but I just dont trust them.

How can this be hot, if your package never arrives?

I've ordered dozens of items from them and never had a parcel go missing. You would have the same sort of risk buying from a Chinese seller on ebay plus you have the added protection of paypal.

who people can not trust these guys i mean Volkswagen is German but still cheats so now days any one any where can be a little doggy :smiley:

Dare to think what his opinion on immigration is like.

Bought one of these a few weeks ago for my daughter (plus silcone cover). Great piece of kit; bought from Gearbest UK warehouse for £12.20 (£8 from their HK warehouse at the time), but it's now a bit more expensive.

ordered one of these nearly a month ago and still hasn't turned up

sure it will mind as have never had a problem before. great deal for the money (if it shows up)

Irrelevant... or you suggesting something ?

I bought this a month ago and i'm really impressed by it.. great price and lasts ages

Enjoy your purchase anyway, have a good banging. :smiley:

never heard of banggood. i'll have to go their site to check them out. used gearbest a few times and never had a issue.

This is a great deal and I'm not arguing about that ! There is simply no clear rules which deals are allowed to be posted here... and this raising some questions, that's all I wanted to say.

Please be aware the mAH rating ive found to be very "generous" expect about 50-60% of the rated capacity in reality.
But i've never had a problem getting stuff from bang good nor getting a refund. But I don't doubt the dissers hear will bleat on like they usually do.

I have one. Got good reviews and feels like a very quality item. Usually at this price from China these are cheap rubbish with flimsy feeling build, wonky ports and buttons etc but this is a cut above.

Ordered thanks OP heat added!

For some bizarre reason when I went through Quidco, the option to track postage disappeared. It was there when I tried through the 'get deal' link...

What's that for? And that is the old version.

Xiaomi is top of chinese phone companies they even offer they system for free on other phones.

Thanks OP - just what I was looking for.

Nice - thanks OP. Ordered & heated.

Great deal, I ordered in USD with a perfect exchange rate credit card. Every little counts...

I use one of these:

http://www.banggood.com/KEWEISI-3V-9V-0-3A-USB-Charger-Power-Detector-Battery-Capacity-Tester-Voltage-Current-Meter-p-984613.html

You can measure the amount of juice that flows into the battery by plugging it on as you're charging it up, and then plug it into its output and you can measure what comes out before it runs dry.

Useful little device - also tells you what current your devices draw and can let you know if you get voltage sag from when you're running things from battery.

how does this compare with anker power bank?

I've got one of these, and the slim one. Both are great as are Banggood.

Ive bought two things from bangood and can say I had no probems what so ever and fast shipping, the first was from the UK warehouse and second the Malaysia.

this is a brilliant little power bank. Xiaomi make good quality gear. My little xiaomi yi is the nuts

I have one too, though I'm pretty sure I pain 99p on eBay. Only used it once or twice, but great for proving if your device is charging at the rate you think it is (e.g. testing a suspect USB port or cable)

Got one of these when I went to my cousin's wedding in Hong Kong last year where I bought it there. (Exact same one as the one pictured - silver) Fantastic charger! Slick, easy to use and gives me a full charge and a bit more on my Sony Z2 - Highly recommend!

Can anyone recommend a good high capacity charger for this? I find my s4 charger takes forever charging these power packs

Bought one these for £7.77 - the silver edition and couldn't be more impressed. It's a metal casing and it's made very well. Excellent power bank.

ordered thanks

Seems to have positive comments so as well as that and the name of the website(is that for real(!)) then i have got to vote hot.

Great price, thanks op!

I bought one from banggood about a month ago and it's great. charges my phone real quick. much better than the two failed teknet ones I've had.

If anyone wants a silicone protective case for the power bank: http://www.banggood.com/Silicone-Protective-Back-Cover-Case-For-Xiaomi-10000mAh-Power-Bank-p-983591.html.
It comes in 6 colors to choose, £2.20 but you can apply 5% voucher: b185f7; so it costs £2.08. A bit pricey in my opinion if you compare to the power bank.

Maybe the have allowed banggood on here because they have lot of their stock in a eu warehouse. bang good eu direct .Although this item is not stocked there...But off topic a lot of other good stuff is

I've posted overseas deals and they've all been spammed.

thanks op - ordered!

Thanks op, ordered a silver one and paid for tracking as suggested

Thanks, OP.

Is it recommended to check the "Drop Shipping Order (Remove Banggood logo from the package.)" box at checkout?

I think Banggood lying people .... http://www.xiaomidevice.com/xiaomi-power-bank-for-smartphone-and-tablet-5200mah-silver.html - this is 5200mah device and this http://www.xiaomidevice.com/xiaomi-10400mah-power-bank-for-smartphone-tablet-5v-2a-silver.html is 10 000mah device.... LOOK THE USB ports on BOTH of them, and then look the USER PICTURES at the bottom of the banggood page...and you will see that they sell 5000mah instead of 10k ... I hope to be wrong.

Gosh talk about going from 0 to 100...:confused:

This power bank is largely considered the 'best bang for buck' pound/performance that there is really high quality Texas Instruments circuity and high quality battery cells from top manufactures got me to order it from Banggood over a month ago now arrived in 2.5 weeks and passed the authenticity test and performs faultlessly.

OP, it's colours*, not colors. Being British, I don't think we should be using the Americanised version of our own language.

Thanks bought

I had a VOOC charger with my Oppo Find 7, man that was awesome, full charge from flat in 60 mins

Heat for this though, been on the lookout for one so will bite me thinks

Ordered, thanks!

Rizza

Will this work with the iPhone 6s plus?

That picture belongs to the older version of 10400mAh. You can see the comparison here (second image): http://xiaomi-mi.com/news-and-actions/review-of-the-new-xiaomi-mi-power-bank-10000mah/

i would definitely recommend Oneplus Power Bank over this one, which has better made, better quality, better safety and quality control.

I've got one - you won't get any better for the money.(LG/Samsung cells too)
http://www.hardwarezone.com.sg/review-xiaomis-10400mah-mi-power-bank-review-and-teardown-s14-crazy

Is anyone sure that it's true pass-through? If it's simply charging the batteries inside whilst at the same time discharging them this will dramatically reduce their life-span. True pass-through would mean the current from the wall flows through a by-pass circuit when the batteries in the power-bank are fully charged.

gone for this £8.88 with tracking

It's HotUKDeals, someone has to :smile:

Just a joke my friend :smiley:

Anybody any idea just averagely based on electricity prices , considering the huge differences in prices between Electricily suppliers how much it would cost to fully juice this up ?

10,000 mAh.. really? Chargers like these have been proven to be filled with hidden sand to make it weighty

Imagine how this goes up if it overheats or splits!

There have been 7 deals posted in the last 2 weeks but nothing further than that! :man:

​
Ah they may now accept this site now.

Also isn't there a 5% off first orders via the app if I recall.

Xiaomi Fake VS Original Power Bank Comparison, Differences and Overview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2Yr_aE0beQ

Cheaper

..and probably fake. I wonder what cells are in this? the 10400mah has 4 2600mah 18650 lg/samsung cells

Ordered 3 @ £7.52 each. Great stuff OP!

heat added, ordered thanks

does anyone know where I can get this quickly?

Got one awhile back. I've mainly used it on the go with my s4, it uses even more juice when you're using the phone of course, but I find I don't have to charge it up til after a good few uses so I'm happy with that.

Also bought about a month ago, in fact I snapped 2 up. Very neat and powerful piece of kit, I'm well impressed with the performance and build quality. Highly recommended at this price.

Thanks OP, I was lurking for one for a while, just ordered one.

I've just paid the extra for air registered mail and my order now states that it's untracked?

I placed my order over an hour a go and it is still at the processing stage, haven't got a confirmation email yet, has anyone else found this. (The question mark on my laptop is broken, not that I don't know how to use it! Although if anyone here knows how to remap a Kubuntu keyboard please say, I've tried to install xmodmap and failed and xkeycaps but got couldn't get past the first part of the readme file, lol

"See the Imakefile for configuration parameters. To build, do the usual:

xmkmf ; make ; make install ; make install.man" )

i have bought a few cheap ones from china and they have died after couple of months, decided to buy one from the UK for the 18 month guarantee.

still 7.81£

bought one of these 2 weeks ago from banggood on a users recommendation (along with the review)
came within a week
was smaller than expected and also deceptively heavy (more dense than sand anyway!)
used once so far - charged a moto g from 0-100% and still shows 4 lights
so far so good

One time, I bought a large high capacity battery from DealExtreme. It was for one of my old phones. It arrived promptly, looked ok, and had a good weight to it...a battery of that capacity would. It, however, wasn't the best in terms of construction. It worked okay though, but didn't seem to give me even close to the advertised power, and was in fact worse than my official, lesser capacity battery.

Being an idiot, I dropped the thing a few weeks after purchase...the plastic cracked open...and what did I find inside? 1 very small battery and 1 very large piece of rusted scrap metal. Just, literally, a lump of old rusty metal. Crazy.

Just thought I'd share that.

anker are not allowed due to self promotion

Paid for tracking, but when I look on the status page it says 'untracked' and 'standard shipping'; hope it comes online once it ships propper? :neutral_face:

Seems a good deal, bought my dash cam from them a while ago and took a little longer than stated to arrive. Contacted them initially and they said give it extra week but after waiting, they refunded full amount and it then showed up within a week (typically)

I did repay for the item though

Oh, I am not Anker, I was not self-promoting them!!!

Ordered! :smiley:

Can anyone tell me what makes this better than something like this one?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/JETech%C2%AE-2-Output-Portable-External-10000mAh/dp/B00T415OTS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1444257762&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=power+bank&psc=1

Most of the specs seem to be exactly the same...

​ http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/test-centre/mobile-phone/20-best-power-banks-2015-uk-quick-charge-3534490/ not all power banks are made equal and don't have the same protection built in nor can they output as much as stated. most are not actually able to reach the maximum mah rated either

Ahh good spot - subtle differences. (I've got the 1st generation).
I like Xiaomi stuff - Personally I'd be surprised if they have skimped on components in this new version, but without a teardown you never know.

Ordered two

what the hell, dont need it so i bought it :smirk:

Didn't use to be the case, back in 'our' day.
Nice to see you again.

Everything comes from China, all you are doing here is cutting out the middle man and getting the item cheaper.
I have delivered loads of 40 foot shipping containers full of tat like this from China.
If you are prepared to wait, buy direct and save yourself a few quid.

thx very much. ordered 2 :wink:

Yes these type of chargers are proven to be filled with bags of sand

http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/singaporeseen/this-urban-jungle/latest-scam-in-china-mobile-phone-chargers-filled-with-sand

there are 20000mah one's on ebay delivered from the uk for 8 pounds... so excuse the pun, but what's the big deal??

what relevance does that have to this thread? was it a xiaomi charger?
this 'type' of charger?

Great deal,but crazy customs you never know what they will charge you be warned.

just ordered thanks

Ordered! Very excited indeed (how sad is that) :confused:

For those of you who are concerned about ordering from Banggood, I've ordered quite a few things from them before and they've all come through fine. Just be patient as the orders can take a while to arrive :smile:

Banggood has an affiliate deal

where are they shipped from ?

The connection port breaks from the inner shell, due to poor design

thanks OP - ordered today with tracking number - lets see when/if it turns up :smirk:

Bought one of these when i was in china last year, still working great and for very good price.

These are £6.98 on ebay item no. 151806896189

FIRE!! Ordered... been looking for a new one for a while, well since the last one I had went up in smoke.

prefer the 50000 mah one on ebay for same price mods prevented me from posting link as it was an overseas seller so dont know why this is allowed

Why is priority direct mail £2.63 delivered in 5-10days but the express mail is £12.51 and delivered in 10-15 days?

I'm inclined to go for priority unless there's something I've missed.

I would suggest getting a silcone cover for £1.60-£2 as the case does scratch easily (if you have a picky daughter this is a wise move!).

Will the more expensive one work with the £10 quidco offer?

I had a post for an Irish company which supplied to the UK removed by mods a couple of years back ?

I barely bother posting now. I really struggle to understand what the rules are any more.

Hot added. It's a good price for a quite small 10kMAH battery (comparing to others). Just bought one for not even 9£ (added tracking number). I read a lot of reviews of Xiaomi in the last few months and apparently is a really good brand (Chinese doesn't always means that will be **** crap), so let's see :smiley:

Agreed!

Let s get rid of the pointless instore deals totally or at least banish them to another part of the site.

I purchased this powerbank a few weeks ago from banggood, didn't pay for express delivery or tracking and it arrived within 2 weeks. Great battery, just wish it has 2 charge ports.

Ain't this the stick flighter.....oh sorry that's Xiao Xiao

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hw4wzwYeZ0Y

Nice ... thanks for this. Had one and lost it! So this will be the replacement. The previous one had no issues and was working great!

Cold. Who carries one of these around

Brilliant post. Ordered one and thanks OP

I got this about 2 months ago - this is a great quality product and charges all the phones in our household with the supplied cable - obviously you can use the cable for your phone type also.......

great buy at the price.

Cheers OP, just paid £7.76 for the silver version.

For anyone who prefers to buy it from ebay, still coming from China but slightly cheaper @ £6.98 and better protection on your payment.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151806896189

any point paying the £2.63 extra to get it in 5-10 business days? don't mind paying to get it sooner but if it's going to get stuck in customs might be pointless.

+1400% activity on TCB for banggood, good work HUKD-ers!

People saying it's on Quidco - Where?

thank you!

cheers buying one for me and one for my sister for christmas as she always taking my anker 16000 cos she ''never needs it''

quick question to stay under the £15 import do i have to buy 2 separately or is the £15 taken on individual item so i can buy 2 in same order?

Ordered one, £7.76 with hopefully 6.3% off from topcashback, but tried a coupon in the purchasing phase and wouldn't allow it due to being a sale item. Heat.

Hi have ordered some for Xmas pressies but have not received confirmation email... is this a problem?
thanks Jane

Assume you use a 2amp charger to charge?

Bang good is similar geekbuying but any technologies and batteries you should pay for duty from £15 and more by delivery company.

Have one good stuff!

Nice one thanks.

Anyone know of a lead to connect this to an iPhone lightning connector?

7.76 now, cheaper :smiley:))

Ordered silver one! Heat added!

Ordered one heat added, cheers

Ordered Silver for £7.76

The pass through is great when travelling and not many charging points in your room.

just not there.

Ordered :smile: thanks op!!

Buy direct from Xiaomi here: http://www.mi.com/en/pb10400/

cheers dropped mine in the washing up so this is good timing.Bangtidy have some heat!

Bought thanks op, went for the tracking option.

Purchased - thanks.

I got one of these from HK. Very well made and works great

thanks it has come now Jane

Has anyone ever used something similar to these Solar Battery Charger Power Banks? What they like?

seems like banggood have struck a deal with hotukdeals.

Found some silicon covers on eBay for 99P http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Soft-Silicone-Protective-Cover-Case-Antislip-for-Xiaomi-Power-Bank-10000mAh-/311445404292?var=&hash=item488397ba84

Ordered, guess it's just three 18650 batteries, if they are Samsung/LG it's a really good price

Its not there.... Shame as it would have been ideal to get 2 and get my £10 QuidCo bonus.

What do you mean, it's not there? Am I missing something here? Aren't you looking for banggood on Quidco?

I agree. 11 million cases of deception is a drop in the ocean.

deception is routine in business and especially politics, nobody even cares about this issue , if they did they would walk or ride a bicycle, the idea that some barely detectable rule has been brken, if it was obvious it would have been spotted years ago. meanwhile I guess you are quite happy to gas guzzle and import shed loads of stuff from all corners nt giving a ff abut your carbon footprint. what about Kraft changing recipes and educing portion sizes? i am not supportng misleading the public but almost nobody understands the issue and 90% of people probably dont care either,

I have ordered a 30000mAh solar powered one that can also be charged via usb for £10.64 delivered, via AliExpress.

I only ordered it on the 2nd, so prob will have a while to wait yet.

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Large-capacitor-30000mAh-portable-solar-charger-Solar-external-battery-charger-solar-power-bank-usb-backup-battery/32369887455.html

I have ordered a few things from there, only things that are less than £5 in case they don't arrive. This is the most expensive thing I have bought from the site.

The longest I have waited for delivery has been 18 days.

I couldn't find it either but I was on my mobile.

Just tried on the iPad:

Banggood is not there on Quidco for me??!!
Can't do a screenshot but I assure you it ain't there!

its lasted me a month and still going strong

Cannot find it on any device, strange! Maybe premium?

Made a mistake and ordered wrong xiaomi yesterday, live chat with banggood and was refunded today, good service.

​they have sent it but still no tracking info?

About time I bought one, and this seems a bargain, cheers op :wink:

Didn't need one, bought one anyway...

Are you sure that you added the tracking number?



Email them or use the Live chat.

Possibly, if there are premium only retailers.

Sorry to say you've been had with that. They are useless, cheaply made and extremely overrated, vastly inferior to this Xiaomi. The solar charge function is worthless in anything other than full sun and even then it would take a week to charge. Leaving it out in a light environment (no direct sun) will fool it into thinking its charging, lighting up the stupidly bright status led's draining its battery as the panel cannot provide enough energy.

To be honest, I have bought it to charge via usb lead, I wasn't expecting much re solar power, especially in the winter months, so I am not depending on that.

I just thought it would be a good form of power for my Nook/Kindle/Tablet.

It should be fine charging it from the mains but this xiaomi would have been a better buy in my opinion.

Of course I did. It's not there for me.

I bought two direct from Xiamoi, couldn't be happier as cracking product for the price I paid at the time (£14.99 per item). Good price if it is for a genuine product.

what shows on the bank statement? Could get in trouble with the Mrs

I don„t know why says that to you because I ordere it yesterday and today Was shipped to my address in Romania :wink:

When i ordered 2 around lunchtime yesterday they both said in stock 14th both still say ''ready to process''

This is a strange one. If I logout, I can find the banggood page with the cashback but login and it disappears again, weird :disappointed:

Now showing as £10.40. Should have ordered earlier!

do you need a separate 10w charger for these or will a standard mobile charger charge fill the Xaomi unit with power ?

Lol

Is this any good ?

Thanks, heat added :laughing:

thanks, always nice to have a couple of these spare :confused:

I bought one and wouldn't touch this company with a barge pole! Had nothing but trouble, especially with it constantly being hot and ended up throwing it away.Beware.

I use Banggood for quadcopter's never had a problem with them :smiley:

Bought! £6.73 :smiley:

You gotta start somewhere, lol :sunglasses:

Whats the problem with that? Good on them in my opinion!

They have taken the time to sign up to warn others of a potential issue and then you have the audacity to criticize them? :laughing:

I've used them before. Takes a while to get your stuff but it arrives eventually. I expected a wait though so I was ok with it

So what is the difference between this and the 50 000 mah power bank selling on ebay for £12.99 (link below)

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/External-50000mAh-Power-Bank-Pack-Portable-USB-Battery-Charger-For-Mobile-Phone-/321500138916?hash=item4adae6cda4

Ordered one and paid for tracking. However the order shows not tracked on Banggood website.

Thanks. Heat added

Little point in ranting about audacity as members should be a little wary of the opinions of first time posters even if you aren't. I agree that the member could have been less blunt though as they don't know if it is a kosher comment any more than you do.

Just ordered one..need it up in the mountains..LOL
Pay via PayPal..if u dont get yr covered

Lets be honest it wasn't really a rant, I was just expressing my opinion as I stated :laughing:

I take everyone's comments with a pinch of salt in cases like this regardless if they have been a member for a long time, I implore others to do the same.

Ordered :smiley:

this is cheap. same price I paid when I was in Hong Kong ordering directly from their official Hong Kong website.
Just make sure its not fake as xiaomi is a popular brand in asia.
https://www.techmesto.com/identify-fake-xiaomi-power-bank/

Need to decide whether to get one of these or another battery that i can keep spare. Any ideas???

Can anyone confirm it has arrived?

Many posts are removed because retailer is not UK based(despite having UK website)... but some posts are allowed for strange reason - thats all what I wanted to say

If I'd made this I would have called it the Dante's Inferno edition.

I have four for myself and my family. They are great for I Phones and Tablets.
All were bought from Banggood. They take a while to arrive.

Just ordered they are now £7.90.... Bargain

Ordered 22nd sept, delivered yesterday 12th Oct. 3wk to be delivered. Sometimes better sometimes worse from banggood/gearbest. whatever I've ordered from them has always turned up, more reliable than fleabay, thats for sure! Always makes me wonder though (I buy lots of painting/craft supplies) how I can buy stuff from the far east, and have it delivered, all for less than the cost of posting a letter to next door!

I was looking at getting an anker power bank, but been undecided for a couple of months.

At this price it's worth a punt, and a great way to see if I actually need one.

are these genuine Xiaomi? Anyone ordered recently and can confirm this? Thanks

had my dispatched email yesterday. good times :-)

It's more likely to have half of that capacity and nonexistent protection.

ordered - thanks.

Not on my quidco either

It was suggested that it might only be available to premium members. I don't know because I haven't tried finding it on Quidco whilst not logged in.

Ordered. Something that is defo needed in today's world, as it seems companies design smartphones to last 2 years with non-removable batteries.
Thanks,

Thanks. I'm a quidco premium member and have been for about a year. very odd its showing for some people and not others. thanks for the reply :smiley:

Anyone know how long they maintain a charge? Can I charge one and keep it hanging around for a couple of weeks before using, or will it be drained? Thanks.

I'm now a little suspicious, I signed up for a banggood account when I ordered.
This morning Igot a email telling me it has been shipped, 10 minutes later I get an email from facebook telling me someone from Singapore has tried to logging to my facebook account... I'm pretty security concious so is this just a coincidence?
hmmmmmmm

Thanks, useful to know.

Couldn't resist. If it really is a 10000mAh bank that holds charge then this is the best deal I've seen in ages.

Will test this on holiday mid November if it arrives in time.

Nice deal kxun :man:

I've got this at the moment, a 6000 mAh Lepow.
http://www.miniinthebox.com/lepow-6000mah-battery-bank-for-mobile-device_p1087871.html

Only seem to get a couple charges out of it. Pretty decent, but want something a bit better all round, so fingers crossed.

Can't find Quidco link for it?

Ordered, at this punt why not..

why would you not get something like this or better still?


i have 16000 anker but have one of these on order as a back to the anker when its charging

good deal

Thanks OP. Just ordered mine £7.88 plus £1.06 for tracking and 6.3% TCB. First time I have used Banggood so let's see what sort of experience I have with them. Want to get an Android box sometime soon, so depending on how this order goes, I'll be ordering one from them. :sunglasses:

Got the same unit from gearbest , same size as a fag box and good build quality

Ordered, thanks

Accidentally orders without tracking, ah well

In the infamous words of He-Man in He-Man and the the Masters of the Universe .. "I have the POWER!" .....

Great deal

these are very handy to have!

Do they have any EU certification?
If not, then aren't these not covered by insurance if they explode?

Wasn't that a song by NWA?

No power bank will be what it is advertised at.

It is a good deal, but I would stick to tried and tested one likes Anker/Vinsic

Is there any powerfull power bank to charge a laptop yet? thanks

Would this be able to refresh a Netbook or Laptop please ?

Thanks OP. Ordered x2

I once post a great deal for a Bluetooth speaker from a website with a UK domain name but goods sourced Hong Kong and you know what? Some admin at HUKD considered a contravention of HUKD policy and canned it the very same day. Only one person as far as I know was able to benefit from the deal and save about £100 in the process. So much for case of double standards!

hot china deal :stuck_out_tongue:

Price increased?

Bricks! Sorry but not up for lugging something that size around. This xiaomi is appealing because it's small and can be charged pretty quickly.

anyone can track it?

thx, o will…

Worth saying that at 2.1A output this is only going to be useful for tabs and possibly a small number of phones and not your average phone, which is generally 1A out

I posted a deal from the official Asolo website, a well regarded international boot company but it was taken down.. makes no sense..

This deal keeps coming back from the dead like Bobby from Dallas

I assume this doesn't have pass through charging? It kills me when you have 2 sockets, the thing plugged into a power source, but you can't charge anything while the charger is charging.

ordered one last night. email that it has been shipped this morning so will see how long there free post takes

​Checked the tracking at Lunchtime today and although it was saying shipping from Sweden (!) wasn't showing the destination tracking. maybe there's a tracking error? Will check again tomorrow and report back.

Thanks for the info - that image shows the 10400mAh version (the proportions are different). Is it written down anywhere that this one has that feature?

Yes, that is from previous generation, and this new one (10000mAh) also supports it.
Review ->http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/review/batteries/xiaomi-10000mah-power-bank-review-3619461/

I ordered mine in end of September, it arrived 2 days ago. So I think 2 weeks is about right, it might be a good diea to contact them if it's taken longer than 3 weeks.

update on my usage
received 3 weeks ago - charged it up
charged moto g 1st gen from 0-100% 3 times in that time, shows 1 light left

Not Expired still 7.82£

Might just be good fortune but i bought on the 7th Oct and it turned up today :smile:
Very impressed ( just to add only paid the basic £7.81 )

Mine has also just arrived after ordering on the 8th. Fully expected a no show or maybe for it to arrive in time for Christmas, so I'm very impressed! :smiley:

Initially this looked good, but I think id rather pay an extra fe £ to get one from a UK seller...

ordered :smiley:

Thanks OP. Ordered

I also ordered on the 7th, but it says shipped on 11th Oct. Still waiting here. Did you choose air tracking?

ordered mine over a week ago with tracking...got no tracking online yet even though says was posted a 5 days ago...anyone had any joy receiving theirs or having it tracked?

if anyone of us cannot track it but has tracking number try this site:
http://www.flytexpress.com/Tracking/NewTracking.aspx?trackNumber=xxxx

xxxx is your number obviously.

I just got my tracking number yesterday and they have shipped few days ago…

it saying 'shipped' to me does not constitute tracking...it just means they say they posted it. I was expecting to see it at various airpots and depots en route..am I expecting too much?

anyone checked if they have a genuine one here?
http://www.mi.com/verify/

Just got mine this morning, very happy. Feels like an Apple product.

Viewing the tracking link returns not found. But clicking view options next to the tracking code gave me full tracking of where it has been.

heh mines (ordered 2) just arrived. sweet!

/ballons

for those trying to track shipments to UK, a Bang good rep gave me this link. once the package is in the UK it found it.

get the KX2??????GB code from order page, then go here

http://www.flytexpress.com/Index_En.aspx

paste the KX tracking code and enter the validation number you see and hit submit, then wait and it should show you the tracking history. works for me.

This deal keeps coming back from the dead like Bobby from Dallas

Just missed a hermes delivery.. could it of been this being delivered?

Just ordered mine, I have a 15,000 mah but it's unbranded and not the smallest either, although it's never let me down and charges my phone multiple times before it dies I'd rather go with the brand.

Ordered 8/10 (without tracking for £7.76) posted 9/10 & delivered 17/10.
Verified as authentic.

I must say I'm really impressed! High quality product & packaging! As said before, Apple would be proud!

I'm amazed at how small it is compared to my anker 15400mah.

Went for gold for daughters phone but still a good price. Delivered very quickly, verified as genuine and feels a real quality product.

Mine arrived today... Absolutely beautiful deal!... Any suggestions for a small case to hold the cable together?

Mine also arrived...really nice quality...

Great quality item, just arrived thanks

It says it supports pass through charging but loads of power banks have 'supported' this but claim that it will shorten the life of the battery. Is it the same case with this one? It's not a vital feature but would be nice to have and would make it better than others who support it but advise against it.

Not arrived after 3 weeks

Received mine yesterday. About a week or so since I ordered so pretty good turnaround.
The battery seems well constructed and shows all the hallmarks of being the genuine article.
One note is that 10,000 mah is at 3.6v. at 5.1v it is 6,250 mAh

No sign of mine yet but its only been 10 days.

Mine arrived this morning :smiley:

Just ordered another one

For this price this is fake one...( i dont know why all put heat for this///

What's the best way to charge this? iPhone charger, PC USB? I can't be arsed looking through 17 pages of comments for the answer!

Why does it have 2a and a 2.1a? Surely the 2.0a would have sufficed unless 2.1a is for something specific? - Oh nevermind just saw the 2.0 is the input doh!

Mine arrived an hour agp

Ordered one week ago

Charging lg g4 now happy days and the supplied cable fits my phone

i bought this one half year ago from china... and price was around 15 i think. maybe i am wrong, but for this price was all fake ones)

Mine's showing a tracking number from Sweden for some reason, and I can't track it. No update since the 10th.:/

Maybe you bought the old version which is still more expensive than this one.

I am very happy that many you have your power banks and you guys checked it (I am reading almost all comments) that it is genuine. It seems like choosing free shipping WITHOUT the tracking number is faster, only one week of waiting!

Sorry if someone else has already asked/answered, but what will happen once you upgrade to a usb-c phone? Will it still be usable? Tried to look for a usb-c to micro-usb but not much is coming up (other than belkin for £15)

This deal keeps coming back from the dead like Bobby from Dallas

Mine arrived today ordered the 7th Oct also didnt pay for tracking.

One out of the box it needs charging

Also verified it was genuine

Mine just turned up.. Pretty quick too

****

Ordered of 7th arrived today , yes it is heavy for the size but no biggie , unfortunately after least 35 attempts I can't get that stupid short verification code to work .

Mine came today, surprised to find it came from the UK going by the label on grey bag it came in. Very impressed with the quality considering it was only £8. I've scanned though the info on BG but does anyone know how long they retain their charge for if left unused?

I ordered one and it took ten days to arrive.
I've been on the Xiaomi website and confirmed it's genuine.
I don't know how long it will last but so far......

Got my one today. Very impressed with it.

Ordered... I probably won't end up using it. lol

I think someone else has given a 99p link...

Here is a 65p(ish) link! - no need to spend £2+ :smile:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/391256241958

Hope this helps someone :sunglasses:

FYI though your completely correct in that you will get 6250mAh out - however your reasoning is all wrong... 3750mAh @ 5v of heat loss would be insane!

The main reason is that lithium cells are 3.7V - you have 10000mAh of capacity @ 3.7V - assuming 100% conversion efficiency that should give you around 7400mAh @ 5V, 6250mAh would suggest around 85% efficiency which seems about right.

Cheers

Good deal. Got mine quick enough, just waiting for the sleeve I also ordered. The instructions are in Chinese though, so can someone explain what I can do with the button?

Have a look at banggood video.

Mine arrived over the weekend, seems to be charging fine. Looks genuine to me.

Mine turned up today - 8 days after ordering. That's quick for Banggood as stuff I've ordered from there has usually taken 2-3 weeks.

Hot

Seems suitably heavy and slightly smaller dimensions than my existing Lepow Moonstone - the latter being 6000 mAh but has been super-reliable for years.

I'll give this a test drive tomorrow, but it's looking good so far as it has that 'heft' to it

I dont care where its from if it saves me money, which is the whole idea surely??

What carrier is this deliver with, mine is not here yet, and tracking doesn't give any info

Thanks, confirmed as genuine. It comes back with "The product you are checking is Mi Power Bank"

I ordered on the 9th it arrived on 17th October paid the basic £7 very pleased with it

I ordered on the 7th, paid for tracking but still waiting for mine which shows it was dispatched from Sweden since the 14th.

FF

Ordered on the 10th priority mail still waiting going on holiday tommarow

i got 3x 0-100 and one 0-60% on a moto g, so used 7450mah @3.7V charging plus around 1 months standby losses total

I ordered three on 12th October. One separately by a faster postal service, then as an afterthought, another two for Christmas presents.

All 3 were delivered today so I wasted a couple of quid paying more for the faster postal service on the first order!

Delivered by Royal Mail.

Mine arrived today, so very pleased

Mine arrived today. Awsome!

Mine just arrived

Mine arrived today too.
Shipped on the 16th by standard shipping.

Because it lasts along time hence 10000 mah I will find out how long it takes to charge it up , I'm guessing 6 hours or so

Delivery is very fast! Received mine today

Cheers

This is an average pack for an average price, far far better ones if you look on EBay.

Mine was shipped on 12th on standard shipping but still not turned up yet. From what other have written, I've no doubt it's arrived at my local depot but the posties round here are a bit unreliable. Or maybe I am being a bit harsh, which company delivers them is it Royal Mail?

Edit: never mind just seen above Royal Mail.

ha totally agree - let's hope amazon.es, amazon.de and amazon.fr plus xbox canada and hungary etc dont get banned rofl

Mine arrived today - it's pretty slick. Just plugged it in.

Mine arrived today, its legit checked on the Xiaomi website :smiley:

Mine arrived as well ...... excellent!!

Hurray mine turned up too! Looks very sleek, bargain for this price, thanks again OP

Mine arrived within a week. Not tried it yet but packaged very smartly in a way that would make a great Christmas present/stocking filler as it looks and feels like a quality product.

For me it was a 5 hour charge not too long.

got mine!

Arrived non tracked today

Arrived today, working great!

Mine arrived today too, less than 2 weeks and didn't pay extra for tracking.
Will use this in tandem with my Lepow Moonstone which my Note One running Waze drains faster than it can be charged.
Daughter wants a gold one now for her Iphone.
Very happy with it, thanks op.

Yup, confirmed genuine so I've bought another.

£6.93 with all available discounts/cashback :wink:

Just received mine (x5), only took 9 days and it came signed for, even though I didn't pay extra for the privilege, absolutely chuffed

ordered two exactly a week ago and received today! after reading some comments about banggood wasnt expecting them any time in the near future but for under £16 delivered you can't go wrong!

Still waiting here. According to the tracking number, it's not moved since the 14th.

Mine arrived today too, really nice device, I like the way you can hit the button and see how much charge is left (there is 4 lights)

Just charged my Nexus 4 to full, 3 lights still left on.

It's quite heavy, feels very premium. Great value..

Thanks OP. My 2 arrived yesterday. Bargain.

hi, I ordered mine 10 days ago. haven't received any confirmation email. Money has been taken away from PayPal though. Is this normal?

Thanks

Just to reassure anyone who's thinking about this, I ordered one on the 8th of October (from their Chinese Warehouse rather than their EU one) and it arrived on the 21st. Very pleased with the service!

Mine arrived yesterday, going to order a few more I think.

Mine got delivered yesterday, very good genuine item. Charged up and ready to rock. Proper bargain :smiley:
