- Charging basicsWhy Does an Unused Power Bank Lose Charge? Self-Discharge, Standby Draw, and How to Store One for Emergencies
The power bank you stashed away is low—or won't charge—when you need it. The causes are lithium-ion self-discharge and the tiny draw of the unit's own circuits. Heat speeds it up, and leaving one empty can over-discharge it so it won't charge again.
