Budi PB800B Mini PD Power Bank is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 2,800, carrying a 10,000mAh cell rated at 37 watt-hours, up to 22.5W Power Delivery output, and a 16cm USB-C cable fixed into the body. The Budi PB800B measures 7.5cm by 6.5cm by 2.6cm and weighs roughly 180 grams, so it sits flat in a shirt pocket rather than bulging out of one. Mascom International stocks the Budi PB800B at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, open Monday through Saturday from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Every unit arrives brand new and sealed.
Matatu commuters, university students, boda riders, and sales teams working between Westlands and the CBD all hit the same wall: a handset at 12 percent by 3:00 PM. Heavy Safaricom and Airtel data use, hotspotting, and a steady stream of M-Pesa confirmations drain a 5,000mAh phone faster than most people plan for. The Budi PB800B answers that with roughly 6,300mAh of usable output after conversion losses, enough to refill a mid-range Android once and still hold a reserve for earbuds. Because the USB-C cable is attached to the unit, there is no forgotten cord sitting on a desk at home.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya listing this same model near KSh 3,500, Mascom International prices the Budi PB800B at KSh 2,800 with countrywide pay-on-arrival delivery. Customers across Nairobi report that the attached cable ends up being the detail they value most, since it removes the second point of failure in any charging kit. At Mascom International, we are seeing 10,000mAh units outsell 20,000mAh models by a wide margin, mainly because buyers want something that survives a trouser pocket. Walk into our Kimathi Street counter to weigh the Budi PB800B in your hand before you commit.
Common Questions About the Budi PB800B Mini PD Power Bank
Does the 10000mAh figure mean four full phone charges?
No, and any listing claiming four is measuring against very small batteries. The Budi PB800B stores 10,000mAh at 3.7 volts, which is 37 watt-hours, and voltage conversion loses close to a third on the way out. Roughly 6,300mAh actually reaches your handset. That refills a 5,000mAh Samsung Galaxy A17 once with a little left over, or an iPhone holding about 3,500mAh almost twice. Earbuds and a smartwatch barely register against the total.
Can I get a useful top-up during a 30-minute lunch break?
Yes. On a phone rated for 22.5W input, half an hour on the Budi PB800B moves a flat battery to somewhere near 50 percent, which carries most people from a Kimathi Street lunch through to evening. Samsung Galaxy A-series, Xiaomi Redmi, Tecno Camon, and Infinix Note handsets all accept that rate. A phone capped at 10W gains closer to 25 percent in the same window. Nothing needs setting up beforehand.
How does the fixed 16cm cable change daily use compared with a loose cord?
It removes the one part people forget. The USB-C lead on the Budi PB800B is anchored to the housing, so the pack is never dead weight in a bag simply because the cord stayed on a bedside table in Kilimani. At 16cm the lead is short enough to keep the pack and phone stacked together in one hand on a matatu. A separate USB-C port stays free for a second device.
Which wall adapter refills the Budi PB800B fastest?
An 18W or 20W USB-C Power Delivery adapter, which brings it from flat to full in four to five hours. Input is rated at 5V/3A and 9V/2A, so the pack accepts the higher 9-volt rail that Power Delivery plugs supply. An older 5W phone charger works but can stretch past eight hours, which is why many customers pair it with a 20W adapter from our Kimathi Street counter. Overnight charging is the simplest routine.
My phone still uses Lightning, so can I use the Budi PB800B?
Yes, through the second port with your own USB-C to Lightning cable. The attached lead is USB-C only, which covers iPhone 15 onward plus effectively every current Android sold in Kenya. iPhone 14 and earlier need that one extra cable, and Mascom International stocks certified USB-C to Lightning leads alongside this pack. Everything else, from Bluetooth earbuds to smartwatches and USB-C game controllers, connects to the built-in lead directly.
Will the Budi PB800B keep a hotspot running through a long meeting?
Yes, with room to spare. A phone sharing a Safaricom or Airtel connection over Wi-Fi hotspot pulls somewhere near 1,200mAh an hour, far above ordinary screen use. The 6,300mAh the Budi PB800B actually supplies covers roughly five hours of tethering on top of whatever the phone itself holds. That is enough for a full site visit, a long conference session at KICC, or an afternoon working from a cafe.
Why is the Budi PB800B KSh 2,800 when marketplaces quote KSh 3,500?
Because Mascom International buys directly and does not price in courier markup or platform commission. The KSh 3,500 figures circulating on Kenyan marketplaces cover the identical PB800B specification. At KSh 2,800 you also get a 6-month warranty, a Nairobi CBD service desk on Kimathi Street, and pay-on-arrival delivery, none of which come with an anonymous online seller. Users consistently report that the walk-in address is what settles the decision.
How is the Budi PB800B different from the Budi PB091B?
The Budi PB800B trades ports for a fixed cable and a smaller shell. Both hold 10,000mAh and push 22.5W, but the PB091B at KSh 2,500 carries dual USB-A plus USB-C sockets and suits someone charging several devices from a desk. The Budi PB800B at KSh 2,800 keeps the lead attached and the body down to 180 grams, which is what a commuter or student actually carries every day.
What should I check when the Budi PB800B arrives on delivery?
Confirm the retail box is sealed, then press the button and watch all four LED dots respond. Plug the attached lead into your phone before the rider leaves and check charging starts within a few seconds. The casing should feel cool or slightly warm, never hot. Because Mascom International uses pay-on-arrival across all 47 counties, you run those checks before any money changes hands, which is exactly the point of the model.
Technical Specifications
Capacity and Real-World Charge Output
- 10,000mAh cell rated at 37 watt-hours, the figure airlines and safety regulators use when assessing battery limits
- Roughly 6,300mAh reaches your phone after voltage conversion, a normal 60 to 70 percent transfer rate
- Refills a 5,000mAh Samsung Galaxy A-series handset once completely, then holds enough charge for wireless earbuds
- An iPhone carrying a 3,500mAh battery takes close to two full charges from a single tank
- Four LED dots on the housing show remaining charge in 25 percent steps before you leave home
- Earbud cases drawing around 500mAh each can be topped up roughly ten times between wall charges
Charging Speed and Supported Protocols
- Rated 22.5W peak output covers USB Power Delivery and Quick Charge handsets with no mode switching
- A phone rated for 22.5W input moves from flat to about half charge in thirty minutes
- Older handsets limited to 5V/2A still charge normally, simply at their own slower rated speed
- Power Delivery negotiates voltage automatically, stepping between 5V, 9V, and 12V depending on the connected device
- Output splits to lower shared levels when two devices draw at once, which is normal for this class
- Quick Charge support matters for the Tecno, Infinix, and Xiaomi handsets that dominate Kenya's mid-range market
Ports, Built-in Cable, and Recharge Input
- A 16cm USB-C cable is fixed to the body, so no separate cord is required
- The attached cable carries output to your phone and input when refilling the unit itself
- A second USB-C port lets you charge another device or connect a cable of your own
- Recharging from empty takes about four to five hours using a standard 18W wall adapter
- Input accepts 5V/3A and 9V/2A, meaning a Power Delivery adapter refills it far faster than 5W
Size, Weight, and Everyday Durability
- Measures 7.5cm long, 6.5cm wide, and 2.6cm thick, close to the footprint of a credit card
- Weighs about 180 grams, similar to a mid-range smartphone, so a bag stays noticeably lighter
- Hard plastic shell with a matte finish hides the fingerprints and dust picked up on Thika Road
- Rounded edges and a squat shape stop it snagging inside a laptop sleeve or handbag pocket
- Black is the standard colour supplied to Kenya, matching most phone cases and office kit
- No sliding covers or retracting mechanisms that wear out or jam after a few months
Safety Protection and Cell Handling
- Multi-layer protection circuit guards against overcharge, over-discharge, overcurrent, short circuit, and voltage spikes
- Temperature monitoring cuts output if the pack heats past safe limits during a long charging session
- Automatic output matching reads what the connected device requests instead of forcing a fixed voltage
- Cells stay within rated limits when charged from an inverter or generator during Kenya Power outages
- The pack stops drawing input once full, so leaving it plugged in overnight will not overfill it
- Store it between 20 and 80 percent when unused for months to slow natural cell ageing
Device Compatibility Across Brands
- Works with any USB-C phone including Samsung Galaxy, Tecno, Infinix, Xiaomi, Redmi, Oppo, and Vivo
- iPhone 15, 16, and 17 models charge directly from the attached USB-C cable with no adapter
- Older iPhones using Lightning ports need your own USB-C to Lightning cable through the second port
- Tablets such as Galaxy Tab A and iPad charge from it, though slower than they would from mains
- Bluetooth earbuds, smartwatches, portable speakers, and USB-C game controllers all draw power without trouble
- Not rated for laptops requiring 45W or more, so a MacBook or EliteBook needs a larger unit
