What are the differences between recharging the PowerCore Essential 20000 (325 Power Bank) using a 5V/2A wall charger versus a USB-C wall charger?

Since the 325 Power Bank supports Power IQ charging technology, it has a maximum input power of 5V/2A; therefore, the speed of recharging the power bank is the same when using a 5V/2A wall charger versus a 30W USB-C wall charger. It takes approximately 10-11 hours to fully charge the PowerCore Essential 20000.

 

The PowerCore Essential 20000 comes with a Micro USB cable included, it is recommended to charge the PowerCore Essential 20000 using a 5V/2A wall charger with the included Micro USB cable. However, you can also use a 30W USB-C wall charger with a USB-C to USB-C cable (not included) to recharge the PowerCore since the PowerCore has an overcharge protection function, so it will not damage your PowerCore.
