"I've tested countless power banks over the years, and they have all made use of lithium-ion batteries. These have the advantage of being cheap and have high energy density, but they can, if provoked too much, burst into flames. Needless to say, that's not a good thing. This is where solid-state cells come into play. These ditch the flammable electrolyte solution found in lithium-ion batteries for a non-flammable solid."
"This 5,000mAh/19Wh wireless charging power bank is perfectly designed to fit the iPhone. It measures 4.0 x 2.7 x 0.4 in/102.7 x 68 x 11 mm and weighs 4.8 oz/137 g. The magnetic wireless charger is built to Qi2 standards, which means that it can output up to 15W of power for a fast charge. The magnets are also strong enough to securely hold the charger to the phone when in use."
Solid-state cells replace flammable liquid electrolytes with non-flammable solids to reduce fire risk in portable power banks. The SolidSafe 5K uses a 5,000mAh/19Wh capacity in a compact 102.7 x 68 x 11 mm, 137 g enclosure designed to fit the iPhone. The device includes a Qi2 magnetic wireless charger delivering up to 15W and strong magnets to hold the phone. A single USB-C port supports up to 20W output and 15W input and can operate simultaneously with the wireless pad. Pass-through charging allows charging the bank via USB-C while wirelessly charging a phone. A color display shows power levels and charging/discharging power, and a lanyard doubles as a USB-C cable for convenience.
