The Budi PB083B2 Power Bank is available at Mascom International for KSh 3,500, brand new and sealed, with a 20000mAh cell, 20W USB-C Power Delivery and 22.5W Quick Charge. What sets this model apart is its trio of built-in cables, so you can charge a phone without hunting for a lead. Four output ports and an LED display showing remaining charge complete the design. You can see the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank at our shop in the Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, on Kimathi Street in Nairobi CBD, where staff will connect it to your own phone before you pay.
Built for sales teams, estate agents, NGO field staff and anyone else who spends the day away from a desk, the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank solves a common problem: the charger is at home and the cable is in another bag. Because the leads are attached to the body, you plug in and keep moving. A household with phones that use different charging ports can top up several of them from one unit during a KPLC outage. The display on the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank tells you how much charge is left, so you know when to refill it.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell unbranded power banks with doubtful capacity labels, Mascom International stocks Budi, a brand known for charging accessories, and lets you test each unit at the counter. Customers across Nairobi tell us built-in leads are the feature they use most, because a forgotten cable no longer means a dead phone. Next to the Budi PB083B Power Bank, the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank lists more ports and attached cables for KSh 100 less.

Common Questions About the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank
How much is the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank in Kenya?
The Budi PB083B2 Power Bank costs KSh 3,500 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, brand new and sealed. That price includes the 6-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery, so you pay only when the parcel is in your hands. Its sibling, the Budi PB083B Power Bank, sells for KSh 3,600, which makes the Budi PB083B2 KSh 100 cheaper while listing three built-in cables, four output ports and an LED display. You can pay in cash or through Lipa na M-Pesa at the store.
Which cables are built into the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank?
The Budi PB083B2 Power Bank carries three cables fixed to its body, and Kenyan retail listings describe them as including USB-C and Lightning leads. That covers most Android phones sold in Kenya, recent iPhones with USB-C and older iPhones with a Lightning port. Because the cables stay attached, they cannot be left behind at the office or borrowed by a colleague. Ask us on WhatsApp to confirm the third connector before you order, especially if you still use an older phone with a micro-USB port.
How is the Budi PB083B2 different from the Budi PB083B Power Bank?
Both models hold 20000mAh and support 20W USB-C Power Delivery with 22.5W Quick Charge, but the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank adds three built-in cables, four output ports and an LED display to its specification. The Budi PB083B Power Bank is listed with an LED battery indicator and sells for KSh 3,600, which is KSh 100 more. Pick the Budi PB083B2 if you want to charge several gadgets without packing leads. Pick the Budi PB083B if you prefer its feel after handling both at our Kimathi Street counter.
Can the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank charge four devices at the same time?
The Budi PB083B2 Power Bank has four output ports, so it can feed several devices at once, such as two phones, an earbuds case and a smartwatch charger. When many devices draw power together, the total output is shared between them, so each one charges more slowly than it would alone. For the fastest top-up, connect a single phone that supports Power Delivery or Quick Charge. Customers across Nairobi tell us they charge a phone and earbuds together through long meetings without trouble.
How does the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank help during KPLC power cuts?
The Budi PB083B2 Power Bank stores 20000mAh, four times the capacity of a typical 5000mAh phone battery, so it can carry a household through a long KPLC outage. Real-world charges come in below that figure because some energy is lost as heat during transfer. Keep it topped up while the power is on, and it will run phones, a portable MiFi router or a USB LED lamp when the grid goes down in Kisumu, Nakuru or Nairobi.
Will the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank fast-charge my phone?
The Budi PB083B2 Power Bank fast-charges phones that support USB-C Power Delivery at up to 20W or Quick Charge at up to 22.5W. Power Delivery is the standard iPhones and Google Pixel phones use, while Quick Charge is common on Android handsets with Qualcomm chips. A phone that supports neither standard still charges, only at its normal speed. Phones built around their own brand's charging system may charge faster from that brand's wall adapter than from any power bank.
Can I carry the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank on a flight from JKIA?
Yes, a 20000mAh power bank like the Budi PB083B2 rates at roughly 74Wh, below the 100Wh limit most airlines set for cabin baggage. Power banks must travel in your hand luggage, never in checked bags, on Kenya Airways and other carriers flying out of JKIA. Some airlines now restrict using power banks during the flight, so check your carrier's current rule before boarding. Carry it with the built-in cables tucked in so they do not snag in the security tray.
Who should buy the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank and who should skip it?
The Budi PB083B2 Power Bank suits commuters, field staff and families who charge several phones and want cables attached so nothing gets forgotten. University students at Kenyatta or JKUAT sharing a hostel room will find the four outputs handy. Skip it if you need to charge a laptop, because a 20W output is too low for most notebooks; a 65W or 100W laptop power bank is the better fit. If carrying size matters most, look at a mini model such as the Budi PB812B Power Bank.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Capacity
- 20000mAh battery capacity — four times a typical 5000mAh phone battery, enough for several days of top-ups between refills.
- Roughly 74Wh energy rating, worked out from the capacity — below the 100Wh cabin limit most airlines apply to power banks.
- LED display on the casing — shows remaining charge, so you know when to plug the power bank back in.
- Real-world output — expect fewer full phone charges than the raw capacity suggests, because some energy turns to heat in transfer.
- Shared household reserve — one unit can cover several family phones through an evening without mains electricity.
- Brand new and sealed — supplied in Budi retail packaging, never as a loose or repacked unit from an unknown source.
Charging Speed and Standards
- 20W USB-C Power Delivery — PD is a charging standard that lets compatible phones, including iPhones, draw faster current over USB-C.
- 22.5W Quick Charge — QC is Qualcomm's fast-charge standard, found on many Android phones, letting them fill faster than basic charging.
- Automatic negotiation — the power bank and the phone agree on the fastest speed both support, with nothing for you to set.
- Standard charging fallback — phones without PD or QC still charge safely at their normal speed from any output.
- Shared output when busy — charging several devices at once splits the available power, so each one fills more slowly.
- Not built for laptops — 20W to 22.5W suits phones, earbuds and small tablets, not notebooks that need 45W or more.
Device Compatibility
- Android phones — Samsung, Tecno, Infinix, Oppo, Redmi and other USB-C handsets charge straight from the attached USB-C lead.
- iPhones — recent USB-C iPhones and older Lightning models are covered, since retail listings name USB-C and Lightning leads.
- Earbuds and smartwatches — charging cases and watch chargers with a USB plug work from the spare output ports.
- Small tablets — USB-C tablets charge at a steady rate, useful for children's learning tablets on long road trips.
- MiFi routers and USB lamps — portable Wi-Fi units and USB LED lights keep running during a power cut.
- Older micro-USB gadgets — confirm the third built-in connector with us on WhatsApp before buying for these devices.
Build and Ports
- Three built-in cables — attached to the body, so you never need to pack or search for a separate phone lead.
- Four output ports — charge several devices at once from one unit, handy for families and shared offices.
- Capacity-first body — sized for a backpack, handbag or laptop bag rather than a trouser pocket, as most 20000mAh units are.
- Cable care — wrap the attached leads loosely and avoid sharp bends at the joint so they last longer.
- Heat and dust — keep it off hot car dashboards and wipe the ports clean after dusty trips upcountry.
- Readable display — the LED readout stays visible indoors, so checking charge takes a glance rather than guesswork.

Package Contents
The Budi PB083B2 Power Bank arrives in Budi's retail box, brand new and sealed. Because its three cables are built into the body, the unit itself covers most phone charging without any extra lead. A separate lead for refilling the power bank, or a wall adapter, may not be in every batch, so check with us on WhatsApp before ordering. Compatible USB wall adapters are sold separately at Mascom International, and staff will match one to the power bank at the counter.
Warranty
Mascom International backs the Budi PB083B2 Power Bank with a 6-month warranty covering manufacturing defects under normal use. If the unit stops holding a charge, a port fails or the display goes blank because of a factory fault, bring it with your receipt to our Nairobi CBD service desk at the Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street.
