Quality Xiaomi Power Bank
In the production of Xiaomi Power Bank 20000, high-quality batteries from well-known manufacturers are used.
Design and device
The Xiaomi ZMi Aura 20000 power bank is not particularly different in shape from the previous series, but is slightly different in coating. Plus, the range finally includes a black version, which is actually dark gray, I would call it graphite color.
The upper and lower surfaces have lost the “pimples”, but have a noble matte-velvety texture. The side edges are no longer smooth, glossy, but have a matte diamond-shaped relief.
This is definitely nicer and can be seen better in the next photo, where there is also a single button for checking the charge and turning on the microcurrent charging mode.
The indicator here is not 4 luminous dots, which allow you to determine the remaining charge with a huge spread of ±25%, but a full-fledged electronic display with a digital display with an accuracy of 1% and this is just super.
In addition, the indicator has various animation effects when charging devices, charging a power bank and microcurrent charging mode, which is very informative and looks awesome.
The connectors in the white and black versions are located the same way, but since the Type-C port in the black power bank can work in both directions, this is reflected in the markings.
At the bottom, the characteristics of the power bank are indicated with barely noticeable paint.
They duplicate the parameters printed on the packaging and do not spoil the design of the device.

Main characteristics of Power Bank 20000
Model: YDDYP01 Battery type: Li-Ion-polymer battery Battery capacity: 20,000 mAh 3.6V Operating temperature: 0°C - 45°C Size: 141.9x73x21.8 mm Input parameters: 5.0 V - 2.0A, 9V– 2.0A, – 12V– 1.5A Output parameters: 2 x 5.1 V – 2.1A, (MAX 3.6A) Charging time: about 7 hours (charger 18W*, standard cable), about 10 hours (charger 10W*, standard cable);
Note:
*18W charger supports output voltage DC 5.0V/2A, 9.0V/2A, 12.0V/1.5A *10W charger supports output voltage DC 5.0V/2A.
Charging the power bank
The Xiaomi ZMi Aura 20000 power bank can be charged via Micro-USB or Type-C connector from any charger. Both connectors support fast charging technologies.
Interestingly, in this case everything worked out and the charger from the Lenovo Vibe P1 smartphone with QC 2.0 support charges the power bank in exactly 9 hours, which is an excellent result. At the same time, the charger itself got warm, like when charging a smartphone, and the power bank was cold all the time.
According to the electronic display of the power bank, power gain does not occur linearly. In the first 2 hours it gained 75% charge, after another 1 hour the charge was 85%, and for the remaining 5 hours the power bank slowly gained power to 100%.
It’s difficult to say for sure whether the indicator is lying or whether this is actually happening, but this is very similar to how fast charging technology works. First, a completely discharged battery quickly gains capacity, and then is safely recharged to the end with a reduced current.
This allows you to quickly get a well-charged power bank when you don’t have the opportunity to wait long. The same thing happens when charging mobile phones, which gain a fairly large capacity during the first 15-30 minutes of charging, and this is good.
According to tests on technical portals and user reviews, charging a power bank from a conventional charger with a current of 2 A takes from 14 to 17 hours, it all depends on the actual power and quality of charging.
Charge Power Bank 20000
When using the Mi adapter for the Xiaomi 20000 external battery, you can charge the built-in battery of the device. Dj charging time indicators display the charge level as follows:
LED2 | LED3 | LED4 | ||
0-25% | Flashing | Does not burn | Does not burn | Does not burn |
25-50% | Glows | Flashing | Does not burn | Does not burn |
50-75% | Glows | Glows | Flashing | Does not burn |
75-96% | Glows | Glows | Glows | Flashing |
Charging complete | Glows | Glows | Glows | Glows |
Problem while charging | Flashing | Flashing | Flashing | Flashing |
Recharging other devices using Power Bank 20000
Use a USB data cable to connect other digital devices to charge them. When the Power Bank is operating, the indicators display the remaining charge level as follows:
Charge level | LED1 | LED2 | LED3 | LED4 |
Insufficient voltage | Does not burn | Does not burn | Does not burn | Does not burn |
0-25% | Flashing | Does not burn | Does not burn | Does not burn |
25-50% | Glows | Flashing | Does not burn | Does not burn |
50-75% | Flashing | Flashing | Flashing | Does not burn |
75-96% | Flashing | Flashing | Flashing | Flashing |

Attention
• When using for the first time, you must fully charge the Power Bank. • When using the product, turn on the screen of the digital device, check whether the charging indication is correct to ensure the correct operation of this device. • When receiving and supplying electricity, you must select the correct cable yourself. • If the capacity indicator goes out completely while charging digital devices, the battery needs charging. • When connecting the battery to digital devices, digital devices use electricity first. • After digital devices are fully charged, be sure to disconnect the cable in a timely manner to prevent malfunctions. • If, due to a short circuit or other reasons, the product has entered a safe mode (the LED near the power button does not light), the device must be connected to the network to return to normal operation.
How to use: what charges, charge control
To use an external battery, you need to take a mobile phone (tablet) and the cable that comes included. The cord connector must be inserted into the corresponding port located on the device. The charging process begins automatically after manipulation.
If this does not happen, then you need to press the on/off button. The duration and number of presses will depend on the specific model of the external battery. Detailed information about this action can be found in the instructions provided by the manufacturer for the device. Practice shows that to turn off you need to press 1-2 times. On some models, the button should be held for several seconds, allowing the power bank to turn off.
To understand that charging is successful, you can look at the LEDs located on the case. As the energy in the device decreases, the number of working LEDs also decreases. Using the same principle, you can track the percentage of remaining charge.
You can charge absolutely any portable electronics with non-removable and removable batteries that are compatible with the device.
Purpose of the anti-counterfeiting label
Each Xiaomi Power Bank 20000 mAh autonomous charger has Xiaomi anti-counterfeiting labels on the outer packaging. To verify the authenticity of the product, erase the protective layer and enter the code that appears on the website https://www.chaxun.mi.com

Packaging and equipment
The Xiaomi ZMi Aura 20000 power bank comes in a nondescript box made of recycled cardboard.
The white version has model number QB821, and the black version QB822.
On the side of the sticker are almost all the technical characteristics, which we will talk about a little later.
Inside the ugly brown packaging hides another black box that is much prettier to look at.
On the front there is a picture of a power bank, the color of which matches the device itself; it also mentions the power, total battery capacity and the presence of USB Type-C.
All technical specifications are also indicated on the back, and there is also a sticker to verify the authenticity of the device on the manufacturer’s website.
Inside there is another cardboard damper, and the power bank is enclosed in a bag that protects from scratches, which leaves no doubt about its safety during transportation.
The black power bank comes with a USB/Type-C cable 30 cm long, which can be used in two directions - to charge the power bank itself and mobile devices.
Interestingly, the white version comes with a Micro-USB cable with an adapter to Type-C.
This is a more convenient and universal solution, because owners of devices with different connectors will not need to carry two cables with them.
It is unclear why such a cable was not made for the updated black version.
