The CircuitMess Power Bank holds 10,000 mAh, enough to recharge CircuitMess kits, phones or tablets multiple times.

It charges your devices through two output ports:

  • USB-A, up to 22.5 W (10 V / 2.25 A)

  • Type-C, up to 20 W (9 V / 2.22 A)

Between them they will charge almost any modern USB device, including smartphones and tablets.

The output is stable, so you can run Jay-D 2.0, Wheelson 2.0, Synthia 2.0 or another finished CircuitMess device from it.

To refill the power bank itself, feed the Type-C port from a fast wall charger at 9 V / 2 A or 12 V / 1.5 A. A full recharge then takes a few hours.

The unit weighs 288 g and has a durable ABS shell, and it is small enough to fit in a pocket.

You can fly with it. At 10,000 mAh it holds roughly 37 Wh, below the 100 Wh limit most airlines set for carry-on luggage. Rules differ between airlines, so check yours before you travel.

If your power bank arrives faulty, or it is missing from a delivery that should have contained it, message us here, or email [email protected], with your order number and a short description of what happens. A genuine defect or a missing item is put right free of charge. A unit damaged in use is charged for, and we always quote the price before anything is billed.
