Nitecore says:
The Nitecore Carbo 20000 power bank is made from carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) which is lightweight, durable and corrosion resistant. The unibody shell provides optimal protection of the battery inside as well as a smooth, strong finish.
Currently the lightest 20,000mAh power bank, the Carbo 20000 provides sufficient power to keep your electronic devices charged, including smartphones, GPS, headlamps and earphones. The Carbo 20000 can automatically detect different devices and has an available output of 20W and 18W input. The power bank is compatible with QC/PD.
The Nitecore power bank has a power level display next to the ports and power switch and shows the following LEDs:
1 LED = approx. 25%
2 LEDs = approx. 50%
3 LEDs = approx. 75%
4 LEDs = approx. 100%
The Carbo 20000 has multiple safeguards to ensure your safety, including overcurrent protection, short-circuit protection, over-discharge protection, overcharge protection, overvoltage protection and thermal protection.
Our Verdict
The Nitecore Carbo 20000 is an impressive and well-designed power bank. Its 20,000mAh capacity provides ample power to charge multiple devices several times over. The carbon fibre-reinforced polymer shell makes it extremely lightweight—just 296g—yet durable and resistant to drops, punctures, and water splashes.
USB-A and USB-C ports can fast charge a wide variety of devices at up to 20W. The quick charge capabilities get your gear juiced up rapidly. The low current mode is a nice touch for delicate electronics like wireless headphones or smartwatches.
Safety features like overcurrent, overcharge, and short circuit protection give peace of mind. The power level display takes the guesswork out of knowing how much juice is left.
