Amaya PowerBox 300 APB-30 30,000mAh power bank is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 2,700, brand new and sealed in its retail packaging, at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. The APB-30 pairs a 30,000mAh lithium-polymer cell with 22.5W Power Delivery output, one USB-C port, and two USB-A ports. Four LED dots on the shell report remaining charge in quarters. The Amaya PowerBox 300 APB-30 refills over USB-C using the same PD standard it puts out, so a single modern phone adapter handles both jobs at home.
Most people do not need eighty thousand milliamp-hours strapped to a bag. They need one handset alive from 6 AM to 10 PM. The Amaya PowerBox 300 APB-30 answers that narrower job. Nairobi commuters on the Ngong Road and Thika Road runs, boda riders keeping an M-Pesa float line answering all afternoon, shop attendants in Gikomba and Kariobangi working stalls with no socket, and first-year students at Kenyatta University or Strathmore buying their first pack all land in the same bracket. One purchase, one cable, nothing complicated to learn.
Unlike sellers who quote a capacity figure and never explain what it returns, Mascom International states the arithmetic plainly. A 30,000mAh rating measured at 3.7 volts equals roughly 111 watt-hours, which converts to about 18,000 to 19,000mAh of real output once stepped up to the 5 volts your handset accepts. Buyers consistently report that this kind of honesty matters more than a bigger number printed on a shell. At KSh 2,700 the Amaya PowerBox 300 APB-30 undercuts the 15W Oraimo PowerBox 300 Lit while pushing 22.5W. Walk into Kimathi Street to weigh one, or order for pay-on-arrival delivery countrywide.
Common Questions About the Amaya PowerBox 300 APB-30
Should I buy the APB-30 or one of the bigger Amaya packs?
Buy the APB-30 if one handset is your main concern. Its 30,000mAh reserve covers a single user for a weekend, and it costs KSh 2,700 against KSh 3,500 to KSh 5,100 for the 50,000mAh, 60,000mAh, and 80,000mAh models. Step up only if you charge for a whole household, run a tablet alongside a handset, or sit through blackouts lasting several evenings. Bigger packs also weigh more and take longer to refill themselves.
Does the APB-30 have built-in cables or a percentage display?
No on both counts, and that is worth knowing before you buy. Larger Amaya models carry attached Type-C, Lightning, and micro-USB cables plus a numeric readout. The APB-30 uses a simpler arrangement: separate ports and four LED dots showing charge in quarters. You supply your own cable. The trade is price and a slimmer shell against convenience, which suits buyers who already carry a good cable anyway.
What does 30,000mAh actually cover in a normal week?
Roughly three to four full refills of a 5,000mAh handset, so most single users go three or four days between wall charges. A Samsung Galaxy A17 gets close to four. An iPhone 17 Pro Max with its larger cell gets about three. Add earbuds and a smartwatch to the same week and expect two and a half phone refills instead. Heavy camera or hotspot use cuts that further.
Is 22.5W enough for Samsung Super Fast Charging?
Yes. 22.5W is exactly the wattage Samsung Super Fast Charging asks for across the Galaxy A and S lines, so a mid-range Galaxy moves from empty to roughly half in 30 minutes. iPhones top out near 20W to 27W over USB-C PD, so the APB-30 keeps pace there too. Handsets rated for 67W or 120W input, common on Xiaomi and Infinix models, still charge correctly but slower than their own wall brick.
How long before the APB-30 is full again on a Type-C adapter?
Budget five to seven hours from empty using a 20W or larger USB-C PD wall adapter. A pack this size holds a lot, and 22.5W input moves it at a steady rather than quick rate. An old 5W charger stretches the same job past 15 hours, which is why we pair the APB-30 with a PD adapter at the counter. Recharging overnight suits most Kenyan households best.
Can it run a Wi-Fi router or a TV decoder when the lights go out?
A 5V USB router yes, a mains decoder no. Many small Safaricom Home and Faiba routers accept 5V USB input and draw around 5W, so the APB-30 keeps one online for roughly 15 hours. Decoders and 12V routers need a mains adapter or an inverter, neither of which this pack provides. Check the input label on your router before assuming it will work.
Is the APB-30 small enough to carry every day?
For a bag yes, for a trouser pocket no. A 30,000mAh cell has real mass behind it, so this sits comfortably in a laptop bag, camera bag, or student backpack, and awkwardly anywhere else. The textured shell helps it stay put in the hand during a crowded matatu transfer. If you want something genuinely pocketable, a 10,000mAh pack is the honest recommendation instead.
Does it work with older micro-USB phones and feature phones?
Yes, through either USB-A port with a standard micro-USB cable you almost certainly already own. Both USB-A ports also handle Bluetooth speakers, torches, small desk fans, and older itel or Tecno handsets still running micro-USB. Feature phones with 1,200mAh batteries take a very large number of refills from this pack. The USB-C port stays free for your newer handset while the USB-A ports serve everything else.
What warranty and support come with a KSh 2,700 power bank?
Six months of Mascom International cover on manufacturing defects, handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk rather than routed through a third party. That covers cells failing to hold charge and ports that stop passing current. It does not cover drops, water, or damage from faulty cables. Bring the unit to Kimathi Street or start the claim on WhatsApp, and our team confirms the fault before any replacement is issued.
Technical Specifications
Cell Chemistry and Usable Energy Reserve
- Rated 30,000mAh lithium-polymer cell, equal to roughly 111 watt-hours measured at the standard 3.7-volt cell voltage.
- Usable output at 5 volts lands near 18,000 to 19,000mAh once normal step-up conversion losses are accounted for.
- Refills a 5,000mAh handset three to four times, covering a single user across a full weekend.
- Lithium-polymer chemistry holds standing charge better during storage than older lithium-ion packs of comparable size.
- Four LED dots report remaining charge in 25 percent steps, removing guesswork before you leave the house.
Port Configuration and Wattage Sharing
- One USB-C port carries 22.5W Power Delivery output for handsets, earbuds, tablets, and light USB-C notebooks.
- Two USB-A ports handle legacy cables, Bluetooth speakers, torches, and micro-USB devices still widespread across Kenya.
- All three ports run together, splitting total output between them rather than each receiving full wattage.
- Single-port USB-C use gives the quickest refill when one handset needs charge in a hurry.
- No attached cables on this model, unlike the larger Amaya packs, so carry your own USB-C or micro-USB lead.
Refill Input and Turnaround Time
- USB-C input accepts Power Delivery, so the adapter that charges your handset also refills the pack.
- Expect five to seven hours from empty using a 20W or larger PD wall adapter.
- A 5W legacy charger stretches the same refill past 15 hours, defeating the point of a large reserve.
- Overnight refilling suits Kenyan households best, avoiding daytime competition for sockets during load-shedding windows.
- The pack can charge a device while refilling itself, though heat rises and both processes slow noticeably.
Handset, Accessory and Router Compatibility
- Works with Samsung Galaxy A and S series, iPhone, Xiaomi, Redmi, Infinix, Tecno, and itel handsets.
- Charges Bluetooth earbuds, smartwatches, speakers, LED torches, USB desk fans, and 5V USB Wi-Fi routers.
- USB-C notebooks such as Chromebooks and MacBook Air gain charge slowly during standby or light typing.
- Business notebooks drawing 45W or more hold position rather than gain meaningful charge from 22.5W input.
- Micro-USB and Lightning devices connect through either USB-A port using any standard cable you already carry.
Protection Circuits and Battery Care Habits
- Protection circuits guard against overcharging, over-current draw, short circuits, and excessive cell temperature during operation.
- Output cuts automatically when a connected device or cable pulls more current than the port permits.
- Avoid leaving the pack in a parked car, where Nairobi afternoon heat shortens lithium cell life.
- Refill before the pack falls completely flat, since deep discharge cycles reduce long-term capacity retention.
- Keep it dry, because coastal humidity around Mombasa and Diani corrodes exposed port contacts over time.
Shell Finish, Weight and Everyday Carry
- Textured shell resists slipping from the hand during crowded matatu transfers and market foot traffic.
- Mass sits well above a handset, so a bag suits it far better than a trouser pocket.
- Black finish hides the scuffs that accumulate inside toolbags, camera bags, and student backpacks.
- Rectangular body stacks flat against a notebook or tablet in a bag rather than rolling loose.
- Ports sit along one edge, keeping cables gathered instead of running from opposite ends of the shell.
