Yes js they are a usb charger, they charge anything that uses usb up to 2.5amp I think is its specs.
Yes I fully charged it and yes it charged my phone iphone 6 as per my review, 10 times.

I read somewhere of there being many (eBay?) knock-offs around.

How cold does your freezer go down to Dan? I'm off in a few days time and am considering power banks instead of twelve or so GoPro batteries, probably will still take loads of batteries for the SLR though

Canberra Trekker wrote:My interest in the battery was triggered from reading this thread. I ordered one and received it last week. When it arrived, it had only one of the four LEDs lit when I connected up to the USB charger. The next LED beside it was flashing. It takes a long time to charge. Don't be surprised if it takes 24 hours . I monitored the energy going in with my USB power monitor and the charge current was about 900 mA. After about six hours the LED which was flashing became lit and the third one along started flashing. Eventually all four will come lit........................
....................No power at the output terminal so USB monitor display went dead. I'd not seen this behaviour with anything else I've connected the battery up to. To resurrect at power at the Xaomi battery output ports, requires that button to be pushed. So that's my guess that the purpose of the button on the device is that by pushing the button, the LEDs will light to show you how much capacity there is in the battery and also put power onto the output USB port.
