Amaya APB-D27 Power Bank is in stock now at Mascom International for KSh 1,400, built around a 20,000mAh lithium-polymer cell with a digital percentage readout, a detachable 4-in-1 charging cable, and a wide LED lamp panel across one face. Every unit is brand new and sealed, available over the counter at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. The Amaya APB-D27 refills a typical 5,000mAh phone battery roughly three to four times between wall charges. At KSh 1,400, this pack sits well under the KSh 1,900 to KSh 3,500 range most branded 20,000mAh models command in Nairobi shops.
Kenya loses hours of grid supply to load shedding in a normal month, and a phone at 8 percent during a Thika Road jam is a lost M-Pesa payment or a missed client call. The Amaya APB-D27 was picked for buyers who feel that squeeze daily: university students at Kenyatta University and JKUAT running back-to-back lectures, boda riders navigating with maps all afternoon, Gikomba and Nyamakima traders confirming till payments, and field staff working Nakuru, Eldoret, and Kisumu routes. One charge of the Amaya APB-D27 covers a full working day plus the commute home.
Most sub-KSh 1,500 packs in Kenya hide their real charge level behind four blinking dots and force you to carry loose cables. The Amaya APB-D27 answers both problems with an exact percentage figure on screen and three connector heads attached to the pack itself. Buyers consistently report that the built-in cable set is the reason they stop losing chargers. Walk into Mascom International on Kimathi Street to weigh the Amaya APB-D27 in hand, or order it for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya's 47 counties.
Common Questions About the Amaya APB-D27 Power Bank
How many phone charges do you actually get from the Amaya APB-D27?
Expect three to four full charges of a 5,000mAh phone such as a Tecno Spark, Infinix Hot, or Samsung Galaxy A17. The 20,000mAh rating is cell capacity, not usable output. Voltage conversion and heat typically consume 25 to 35 percent, leaving roughly 13,000 to 15,000mAh at the port. Smaller batteries stretch further: an iPhone 15 at 3,349mAh gets close to four charges, while a 6,000mAh Infinix Note lands nearer two and a half.
Do I still need to carry my own charging cable?
No. Three connector heads sit attached to the pack: USB-C for recent Android phones, Micro USB for older Tecno, Itel, and Bluetooth accessories, and Lightning for iPhone 14 and earlier. The fourth strand feeds the pack itself. That covers almost every phone in circulation in Kenya today. You can still plug a separate cable into the USB output port when charging a friend's device or something the attached heads do not fit.
Is KSh 1,400 a fair price for a 20,000mAh pack in Kenya?
Yes, and it undercuts most named alternatives. Oraimo's 20,000mAh Traveler models retail between KSh 1,600 and KSh 2,000 in Nairobi, and comparable Romoss and Veger units sit around KSh 1,800. The Amaya APB-D27 lands at KSh 1,400 with the percentage screen, lamp panel, and attached cables included. Spread across a two-year service life, that works out to under KSh 2 per day for daily backup charging.
How long does the Amaya APB-D27 take to refill from empty?
Budget six to eight hours from a standard 10W wall adapter, which is why most owners charge it overnight. A 5V 2A adapter shortens that noticeably compared with plugging into a laptop USB port, which can stretch the refill past twelve hours. Watch the percentage readout climb rather than guessing. Refilling during off-peak hours also keeps the pack ready before morning outages hit your estate.
Can the Amaya APB-D27 charge two devices at the same time?
Yes. The pack carries dual USB outputs, so a phone and a set of earbuds or a smartwatch can draw at once. Splitting the load means each device charges more slowly than it would alone, so charge the phone first when you are short on time. Total draw across both ports is shared, not doubled. Keep heavier devices such as tablets on a single port for steadier speeds.
What is the LED lamp panel useful for?
The panel across the pack's face works as a work light rather than a torch beam, throwing a wide flat glow over a table or tent floor. It earns its place during blackouts, night repairs on a boda, camping trips to Naivasha, and power cuts in estates where the backup is a phone flashlight. The lamp draws very little current, so leaving it on for an evening barely dents the charge available for your phone.
Will the Amaya APB-D27 work with both iPhone and Android devices?
Yes. The attached Lightning head serves iPhone models up to the iPhone 14 range, and the USB-C head handles iPhone 15, 16, and 17 alongside Samsung, Tecno, Infinix, Xiaomi, Oppo, and vivo handsets. Micro USB covers older phones and accessories still common across Kenya. Tablets, Bluetooth speakers, wireless earbuds, and fitness bands all charge from the same outputs, though tablets naturally take longer than phones.
Can I carry this power bank on a flight from JKIA?
Yes, in hand luggage only. A 20,000mAh pack at 3.7V works out to roughly 74Wh, which sits under the 100Wh limit airlines apply without special approval. Kenya Airways, Jambojet, and international carriers all require lithium packs in the cabin, never in checked bags. Keep it in an outer pocket for security screening at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, and avoid using it during takeoff and landing.
What warranty and after-sales cover comes with it?
Mascom International backs the Amaya APB-D27 with a 6-month warranty on manufacturing defects, handled directly at our Nairobi CBD service desk on Kimathi Street. Bring the unit and your receipt; there is no shipping the pack back to a distributor and waiting weeks. Cells that stop holding charge, ports that fail, or a screen that goes dark within the cover period get assessed the same day in most cases.
Technical Specifications
Battery Capacity and Real Charging Output
- Rated 20,000mAh lithium-polymer cell, equal to roughly 74Wh, sized for two full days of phone charging
- Usable output after voltage conversion lands near 13,000 to 15,000mAh, the figure that matters at the port
- Charges a 5,000mAh handset three to four times, a 3,349mAh iPhone close to four times
- Dual USB-A outputs allow two devices to draw at once, sharing rather than doubling available current
Built-In Cable Set and Device Compatibility
- Detachable 4-in-1 cable carries USB-C, Micro USB, and Lightning heads plus the input strand for the pack
- USB-C head charges Samsung Galaxy A and S series, Tecno, Infinix, Xiaomi, Oppo, vivo, and iPhone 15 onward
- Lightning head covers iPhone 8 through iPhone 14, still widely used across the Kenyan second-hand market
- Micro USB head serves older itel and Tecno handsets, Bluetooth speakers, and budget wireless earbuds
- Spare USB output port accepts any standard cable for devices the attached heads do not fit
- Cable heads detach for replacement, so a worn connector does not retire the whole pack
Digital Percentage Readout and Lighting Panel
- Numeric display shows remaining charge as an exact percentage rather than four ambiguous indicator dots
- Readout confirms whether the pack is charging in or discharging out, ending guesswork before you leave home
- Screen stays legible indoors and under shade, though direct Nairobi noon sun washes it out somewhat
- Wide LED lamp panel across one face casts flat working light over a table, workbench, or tent floor
- Lamp draws minimal current, running through a full evening blackout without meaningfully reducing phone charges
- Single button cycles power, display wake, and lamp modes, keeping operation simple for first-time owners
Recharging the Pack Itself
- Micro USB and USB-C inputs both accept refill, matching whichever wall adapter you already own
- Full refill from empty takes roughly six to eight hours on a standard 5V 2A wall adapter
- Laptop USB ports refill far more slowly, often past twelve hours, so favour a wall socket
- Overnight charging suits most Kenyan households, leaving the pack ready before morning load shedding starts
- Percentage screen tracks refill progress live, so you can unplug at 80 percent when time is short
- Avoid charging the pack during a lightning storm surge without a protected extension socket
Casing, Dimensions, and Daily Handling
- Hard plastic shell in matte black resists scratches, pocket knocks, and the dust of Kenyan road travel
- Listed weight around 0.5 kilograms including packaging, comfortable in a backpack rather than a shirt pocket
- Flat rectangular body stacks neatly beside a laptop or textbook without rolling around in a bag
- Attached cables tuck into recessed channels along the edge, preventing tangles inside a crowded bag
- Rounded corners reduce snagging on bag linings during daily matatu and boda commutes across Nairobi
- Coastal humidity in Mombasa, Diani, and Lamu calls for keeping the ports dry between uses
Safety Protection and Practical Cautions
- Built-in circuits guard against overcharging, over-discharge, short circuit, and over-current during normal daily use
- Temperature cut-off halts output if the cell heats beyond safe limits, protecting both pack and phone
- Keep the pack out of parked cars in Mombasa or Kisumu heat, where cabin temperatures damage lithium cells
- Recharge before the display drops below 10 percent, since deep discharge shortens lithium-polymer service life
- Do not open the casing; a swollen or leaking cell should be retired rather than repaired at home
- Expect gradual capacity loss after 400 to 500 full cycles, normal behaviour for packs in this price class
Package Contents
- Amaya APB-D27,000mAh power bank in matte black
- Detachable 4-in-1 charging cable with USB-C, Micro USB, and Lightning heads

Note: A wall adapter is not supplied in the box. Mascom International stocks 10W, 18W, and 20W USB wall chargers separately for buyers who need one to refill the pack overnight.
