For me I have 10,000 mAh power bank and it's normally last for me but if you had the money I will suggest that you buy something higher, remember that the bigger the capacity the faster and durable it is.

Buy the biggest power bank you can afford—simple. If you live in Nigeria, especially places like Benin, Aba, or Jos where NEPA dey misbehave anyhow, a 10,000mAh power bank won’t take you anywhere. You'll charge your phone once or twice, and that’s it. The sweet spot for most people is 20,000mAh to 2Read more

The sweet spot for most people is 20,000mAh to 27,000mAh. It can power your phone multiple times, maybe even your small rechargeable fan or MiFi if the brand supports it. Brands like Romoss, Oraimo, and Anker have solid ones. I used a 27,000mAh Romoss in 2024 during the 3-day blackout in Abuja. It literally saved my life—charged my phone, Bluetooth earpiece, and my small lamp.
Only go for 10,000mAh if you’re on tight budget or just need light backup during the day. But if you work remotely, create content, or rely heavily on your phone, go straight for 50,000mAh. It’s bulky, yes, but when NEPA no gree, that thing becomes your best friend.
Don’t let price deceive you. You’ll spend more buying small ones over and over. Buy strong, buy once.

✅ What capacity you might need
A 10,000 mAh power bank is usually enough for 1-2 full charges of a typical smartphone.
A 20,000 mAh unit will cover more: multiple smartphone charges, possibly a tablet once or twice if needed.
A 27,000 mAh or higher capacity is useful if you plan to charge multiple devices (phones + tablet + maybe a small laptop) or you’ll be away from power for a while.
A “50,000 mAh” unit is extremely large. It may offer huge capacity but will likely be heavy, bulky, slower to recharge itself, and you’ll still have to check if it’s real/quality.
