Anker 313 Power Bank Review: The Perfect Travel Companion
The Anker 313 Power Bank (PowerCore 10K) is one of the slimmest and lightest 10,000mAh portable chargers on the market. Weighing just 7.5 ounces and measuring only 0.55 inches thick, it slides effortlessly into your pocket or bag.
PowerIQ Technology for Faster Charging
Equipped with Anker's world-renowned PowerIQ technology, this power bank delivers a tailored, optimized charge up to 2.4A for any device. While it doesn't support Qualcomm Quick Charge, the charging speed is more than adequate for most smartphones and tablets.
Real-World Charging Capacity
With 10,000mAh capacity, you can expect:
- iPhone 15: Approximately 2.25 full charges
- Samsung Galaxy S24: About 1.6 full charges
- iPad mini: Around 1.2 full charges
Versatile Charging Options
The Anker 313 offers flexible input options with both USB-C and Micro USB ports for recharging. The LED indicator shows remaining power at a glance, and the trickle-charging mode (activated by double-pressing the power button) safely charges low-power devices like Bluetooth earphones and smartwatches.
Built for Safety
Anker's comprehensive MultiProtect safety system includes overcharge protection, short circuit protection, temperature control, and more. This is why thru-hikers and frequent travelers trust Anker products for their six-month-long adventures.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many times can the Anker 313 charge my iPhone?

Is the Anker 313 Power Bank allowed on airplanes?
Yes, absolutely. At 37Wh, it is well under the FAA limit of 100Wh for carry-on luggage. It is airline approved for all commercial flights.
Can I charge my MacBook with this power bank?
The Anker 313 can provide emergency charging for MacBooks, but the 2.4A output is too slow for efficient laptop charging. Consider Anker's higher-wattage power banks for laptops.
What is trickle-charging mode and when should I use it?
Trickle-charging mode provides safe, low-current charging for small devices like Bluetooth earbuds, smartwatches, and fitness trackers. Activate it by pressing the power button twice.
How long does it take to fully recharge the power bank?
Using a 2A charger, the Anker 313 takes approximately 4-5 hours to fully recharge from empty. Using a 1A charger will take longer (8-10 hours).
