₦17,000 Oraimo 10k Powerbank: Charged my phone 3x in NEPA BLACKOUT


₦17,000 Oraimo 10k Powerbank: Real 8hr NEPA Test in UNILAG Hostel

NEPA took light at 6PM. By 8PM the whole hostel was dark and everyone was begging for 5% charge. I pulled out the ₦17,000 Oraimo 10,000mAh powerbank and forgot about the blackout.

Why This One Works for Hostel

  • Real 10,000mAh: Charged my iPhone 13 from 15% to 100% twice, still had 20% left.
  • Fast Charge: 0-50% in 35 mins with PD cable. Not marketing fluff.
  • Compact: Fits in pocket. Doesn’t feel like carrying a brick like the ₦8k 20k ones.
  • Price: ₦17,000 on Jumia. Under the ₦15k “no-think” budget for students.

The 8hr NEPA Test

Started at 6PM with 100% on the powerbank. Used it to:

  • Charge phone 3x full
  • Run a 5W LED lamp for 4hrs
  • Power small fan for 1hr

At 2AM when light came back, it was still at 20%. For ₦14k, that’s wild.

Who Should Buy This

If you’re in UNILAG, UNIBEN, UI hostel and NEPA is your landlord, this is it. It’s cheap enough to replace if it gets lost, powerful enough to last a blackout, and small enough to carry to lecture.

Verdict: 8.5/10

Buy it if you want reliable power under ₦16k. Skip if you need 20k+ capacity for laptop charging.
