FAQ

Q01. QE-QL201 has 2 USB outputs. Is it always possible to charge 2 devices at the same time?

A01.

The total output is set at maximum 1.5A.
When 2 devices require over 1.5A in total, the device which was connected first will be charged first.

Q06. The Portable Power Supply gets warm while using. Is it a failure ?

A06.

As a result of chemical reaction of the battery cell and working electric circuit load, it gets warm.
It is not a failure and will become cool after a while.

Q07. How many times can the Portable Power Supply be charged ?

A07.

Cycle time of the Li-ion battery cell itself is around 500 times.
However, cycle time depends on many factors such as charge & discharge condition, ambient temperature, the condition of devices, and others.

Q08. Can conventional mobile phones (GSM) be charged by Portable Power Supply?

A08.

If the cable has no communication function, the possibility is high.

Q09. Can an AC adaptor included in devices work with Portable Power Supply ?

A09.

We did not execute matching tests with all types of AC adaptors, so we cannot guarantee this.

Q10. In case of QE-QL201, is there a difference between the 2 outputs?

A10.

The charging is determined by below rules:

1) When connecting two devices requiring less than 1.5A in total and pressing the start button, both can be charged simultaneously.

2) When another device is connected while one device is being charged, and the total requiring current exceeds 1.5A, the 1st one is preferentially charged and the 2nd one can be charged with the remaining current.
In case that the 1st one requires over 1.5A, the 2nd one cannot be charged at all.

3) When connecting two devices requiring more than 1.5A in total, it may stop charging due to its protective function.
In that case, please charge the Portable Power Supply itself via USB for resetting the protective function.
After that, please charge each device separately.

Q11. Which charging level is adequate to store for a longer period ?

A11.

Please avoid storing the Portable Power Supply with its battery fully charged or empty. Otherwise performance and lifetime of the Portable Power Supply may decrease.
The remaining level at 30%-40% is recommended ("orange" for Optical Indicator) when storing the Portable Power Supply for more than 6 months.

Q12. Why can QE-QL201/5400mAh charge a smartphone of 1400mAh only 2 times?

A12.

The voltage of the Li-ion battery inside the Portable Power Supply is 3.7V. In order to output the power from Portable Power Supply, it is necessary to increase the voltage internally to 5V for USB output.
As a result, energy loss occurs, and that causes the decrease of the battery capacity.

For further information other than 1,400mAh, please refer to the below matrix chart.

The estimated charging time is just an indication and depends on many factors such as charge & discharge condition, ambient temperature, the condition of devices, and others.

Capacity of
your device
QE-QL102 QE-QL101 QE-QL201
600mAh approx. 1.4 times approx. 2.3 times approx. 4.6 times
1400mAh approx. 0.6 times approx. 1 time approx. 2 times
2000mAh approx. 0.4 times approx. 0.7 times approx. 1.4 times
2500mAh approx. 0.35 times approx. 0.6 times approx. 1.1 times
3000mAh approx. 0.3 times approx. 0.46 times approx. 0.9 times

Q13. Is it possible to supply power simultaneously to a device while the Portable Power Supply is being charged ?

A13.

No.
You can only charge your Portable Power Supply after finishing charging your device, not simultaneously.
