[QUOTE="Mikeo1938, post: 1765154, member: 135375"] I've purchased a PB-100 Powerbank so that I can take my iPhone 5 away on bike trips. The instructions show that the powerbank can be charged from a USB socket connected to a laptop and this I've done. However, I won't be taking my MacBook with me on my bike! I've tried charging it (as I would at a hotel) using the iPhone's (continental) two-pin adaptor. However, I must say that the little adaptor does get rather hot. The adaptor is marked Input 100-240v - 50/60 Hz 0.3A; the output is given as 5.0V - 2.1A The instructions say merely, "connect the charging cable of the powerbank to a power outlet via an AC adaptor" So is the standard iPhone AC adaptor man enough for the job? I'm just a little worried about how it's getting rather hot. Thanks in advance. M [/QUOTE]
