Hello,
I just bought the power corr
- 26800 pd and realized I don’t have a pd charger and also the biggest charger at home was the very small 1A iphone charger.
I immediately ordered the Anker PowerPort II with power delivery capability, but it takes about 3 weeks to receive.
In the meantime i am going on vacation and wanted to use the power bank so i got one regular usb-a to usb-c cable and started charging the battery with it.
I noticed that the bank had previously 3 leds remaining.
When i plugged it with the 1 amp charger it started charging, starting from 2 leds. I left it for more than 5 hours and it did not change - charging starting from 2 leds.
I got worried not to damage the bank somehow and unplugged it and it showed again 3 leds of charge.
My first question is - can i damage the battery by trying to charge it with 1a charger? The cable (usb-a to usb-c) is 1.2m CellularLine (more or less quality cable for 13EUR).
My second question is - can i charge a power delivery battery bank with non-power delivery charger at all (there is very scarce information regarding the pd anker bank - i guess it is too new and more expensive yet).
My third question is - i also ordered the Anker PowerPort Solar 2 - 21w - can i use this one to charge the battery bank without worrying of damaging it?
Thank you.
