Pass Through Charging 101

What is pass through charging? 
 
Pass through charging is essentially charging your phone through your power bank whilst the power bank itself is being charged.

 
Is it safe?
 
If your power bank supports this feature or if you're lucky enough to own the CHJGD ultracompact or Kaset lines it is completely safe to do this. Our power banks are built to last (hence the full year's hassle-free warranty) so there's no need to worry about this 'ageing' your device prematurely. All lithium-ion batteries wear due to their construction using an electrolyte and positive plate and the eventual increase in internal resistance. This is an inevitability, but power banks built with this feature in mind tend to be equipped to combat the extra strain.
 

What are the benefits?
 

Pass-through charging simply means you can get the most out of a single outlet. For example, if you have multiple devices this enables you to charge two essentials using one plug - freeing your other inputs for any extras. It is a very convenient method of ensuring you're always equipped with a fully charged phone and back up power!
