Amaya APB-P118 10,000mAh power bank is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 1,000, brand new and sealed, available at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. The Amaya APB-P118 carries a 10,000mAh lithium-polymer cell, two USB-A output ports, and a Type-C port for refilling the pack itself. Amaya rates the APB-P118 for roughly 1.5 to 2 complete smartphone charges, which covers a working day away from a socket. The textured anti-scratch shell resists the scuffs that plain glossy packs collect inside a bag. Mascom International stocks the Amaya APB-P118 for same-day collection or countrywide delivery.
Kenya's university students, boda riders, field sales agents, matatu commuters, market traders, and county health workers share one recurring problem: the phone dies well before the day does. A long stretch on Thika Road, a full shift at a Gikomba stall, or six client visits around Industrial Area leaves almost no chance to find a wall socket. The Amaya APB-P118 answers that with reserve capacity small enough to carry in a jacket pocket or handbag. Its two output ports also matter when a colleague runs flat mid-shift and one pack has to serve two phones at once.
Unlike the unbranded packs sold around KSh 1,000 with 20,000mAh printed on the casing and barely 3,000mAh of real cell inside, the Amaya APB-P118 states a capacity figure that matches what it holds. Buyers consistently report that one named-brand 10,000mAh pack outlasts three cheap unmarked units bought over the same stretch of months. At Mascom International, we're seeing more Kenyan buyers walk away from mystery-brand chargers after a single failure. Visit our Kimathi Street shop to weigh the Amaya APB-P118 in hand, or order it for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere across Kenya's 47 counties.
Common Questions About the Amaya APB-P118
How many times can the Amaya APB-P118 charge my phone?
Expect 1.5 to 2 full charges for a typical smartphone. A 10,000mAh cell does not transfer 10,000mAh to your phone, because voltage conversion loses 25 to 35 percent along the way, leaving roughly 6,500mAh of usable output. That refills a 4,000mAh Tecno or Infinix battery about 1.6 times, or a 3,349mAh iPhone 16 roughly twice. Phones with 5,000mAh batteries, common across Samsung Galaxy A series handsets, get one full charge plus about 30 percent.
How fast does the APB-P118 charge, and does it support fast charging?
The Amaya APB-P118 outputs standard 5V/2A charging, around 10 watts, on each USB-A port. It does not carry Power Delivery or Quick Charge protocols, so a phone that normally refills in 40 minutes on a 33W wall charger will take roughly two hours here. [SPEC UNVERIFIED: retailer listings state 5V/2A output; Amaya publishes no downloadable datasheet for this model. Confirm against the label printed on the unit before publishing.] For overnight top-ups and slow daytime charging while a phone sits in a bag, 10 watts is enough.
How long does the power bank itself take to refill?
Budget four to six hours from empty using the Type-C input with a 10W or 18W wall charger. The Amaya APB-P118 draws roughly 2 amps on input, so a bigger charger does not shorten the wait much. Most owners simply plug it in overnight and wake up to a full pack. The four LED indicator lights on the shell show progress in 25 percent steps, so you can tell at a glance whether it is worth unplugging early before leaving the house.
Can the APB-P118 charge two phones at the same time?
Yes. Both USB-A ports run simultaneously, which suits households sharing one pack or a sales team on the road. Be aware that the available current splits between the two ports, so each phone draws roughly 1 amp instead of 2, and both charge at about half speed. For a single device in a hurry, use one port alone. For two phones sitting in a bag during a long matatu ride, dual charging costs you nothing useful.
Is a KSh 1,000 power bank worth buying, or should I spend more?
At KSh 1,000, the Amaya APB-P118 costs about the same as two weeks of matatu fare and covers basic backup capacity honestly. Spend KSh 3,500 or more and you get Power Delivery, digital percentage displays, and USB-C output that also refills laptops. Spend less than KSh 1,000 and you are almost always buying an inflated capacity claim. The Amaya APB-P118 sits at the point where the numbers stop being fiction without pushing you into laptop-charging territory you may not need.
Will it work with my iPhone, Samsung, Tecno, or Infinix phone?
Yes, with the right cable. The two output ports are USB-A, so you supply a USB-A to USB-C cable for most Android handsets and recent iPhones, or USB-A to Lightning for iPhone 14 and earlier. The Amaya APB-P118 also charges Bluetooth earbuds, oraimo and Amaya smartwatches, JBL portable speakers, wireless mice, and rechargeable torches. Anything that draws power over USB at 5 volts works. Mascom International stocks matching cables at our Kimathi Street counter if yours is worn.
Is the APB-P118 safe for my phone's battery?
The pack carries built-in circuits covering over-voltage, over-current, and short-circuit conditions, which are the three faults that damage phone batteries and charging boards. Kenyan grid conditions matter here, since voltage dips during load-shedding and surges after restoration are common upcountry. Charging through a protected pack rather than straight off an unstable socket is often gentler on your handset. Keep the Amaya APB-P118 out of parked cars in Mombasa or Kisumu heat, since sustained high temperatures shorten any lithium cell's working life.
Does Mascom International deliver the APB-P118 outside Nairobi?
Yes, to all 47 counties with pay-on-arrival delivery, so you inspect the pack before any money changes hands. Nairobi and its environs receive same-day delivery. Kisumu, Mombasa, Nakuru, Eldoret, Kakamega, Kisii, Nyeri, Machakos, and every other major town receive delivery within 1 business day. Mandera, Wajir, Marsabit, Lamu, Tana River, and Turkana receive delivery within 2-3 business days. Order on +254 708 852 521 or through www.mascomintl.com.
Technical Specifications
Battery Capacity and Real Charge Output
- 10,000mAh lithium-polymer cell rated at 3.7V nominal, equal to roughly 37 watt-hours of stored charge
- Usable output lands near 6,500mAh after voltage conversion losses, which is normal for every power bank sold
- Refills a 5,000mAh Samsung Galaxy A series battery once, with about 30 percent capacity left over
- Handles two complete charges for a 3,349mAh iPhone 16 or a 3,000mAh compact Android handset
- Capacity sits under the 100 watt-hour airline limit, so it travels in hand luggage on Kenya Airways flights
- Lithium-polymer chemistry holds charge for weeks when idle, making it practical as an emergency pack in a glovebox
Charging Ports and Output Distribution
- Two USB-A output ports allow a phone and a pair of earbuds to charge together
- Rated output of 5V/2A per port, roughly 10 watts, covering standard charging for every phone sold locally
- Total current splits across both ports in dual use, halving speed to about 1 amp each
- No Power Delivery or Quick Charge protocol support, so fast-charging handsets refill at standard rather than rapid speeds
- 5V output also supports low-draw devices including fitness bands, wireless earbuds, and USB reading lights
- Ports sit on one edge alongside the input, keeping cables tidy in a bag pocket
Recharging Inputs and Refill Time
- Type-C input accepts roughly 2 amps and refills the pack fully in four to six hours
- Micro-USB input included as a second option for owners still carrying older Android charging cables [SPEC UNVERIFIED: Micro-USB input listed by Kenyan retailers; verify against the unit before publishing]
- Overnight charging from a standard 10W or 18W wall adapter is the practical routine for most owners
- Larger wall chargers do not shorten refill time, since the input circuit caps the current it accepts
- Four LED indicator lights report remaining charge in 25 percent steps at a single button press
- Indicator lights also flash during recharging, showing progress without needing an app or display screen
Protection Circuits and Charging Safety
- Over-voltage protection cuts supply if input climbs past safe limits, guarding against unstable upcountry mains
- Over-current protection stops the pack from pushing more amps than a connected phone can safely accept
- Short-circuit protection shuts output down instantly if a damaged cable bridges the contacts
- Automatic shut-off ends output when no device draws power, preventing slow drain between uses
- Charging through a protected pack often treats a handset better than an unstable socket during load-shedding
- Avoid sustained heat above 45 degrees, since parked cars in Mombasa and Kisumu shorten lithium cell life
Build Quality and Daily Durability
- Anti-scratch textured shell resists the scuffs that glossy plastic packs pick up against keys and coins
- Wave-pattern surface adds grip, cutting the odds of a drop when handing the pack across a matatu seat
- Matte finish hides fingerprints, keeping the casing presentable during client meetings and campus use
- Listed weight of about 0.35 kilograms includes retail packaging; the bare unit is considerably lighter in hand
- Slim profile slides into a shirt pocket, laptop sleeve, or handbag without forcing the zip
- Black casing is the colour Mascom International stocks, matching most phone cases and work bags
Device Compatibility Across Kenyan Handsets
- Charges Tecno Spark, Camon, Infinix Hot, Note, and itel handsets that dominate Kenya's entry-level market
- Works with Samsung Galaxy A and M series, Xiaomi Redmi, POCO, Oppo, and vivo models
- Supports iPhone models using a USB-A to Lightning or USB-A to USB-C cable, sold separately
- Tops up oraimo and Amaya smartwatches, Bluetooth earbuds, and portable JBL speakers over USB
- Runs USB-powered accessories including desk fans, reading lights, and wireless mice during power interruptions
- Cables are not brand-locked, so any working USB-A cable from your existing collection connects fine
