5 Power Banks for Wi-Fi Routers

Imagine streaming your favorite TV show on Netflix, and the power goes off suddenly in your house. Meanwhile, your phone pings with a new email notification about an important document or a video file you are supposed to send. How you wish your Wi-Fi router was on! We know that mobile data is quite costly. Thankfully, a few power banks (or mini UPS) for Wi-Fi routers keep them running, at least till the battery lasts

If you can make do with a power bank with average power backup, you can check out the 6,000mAh Talentcell Battery Pack. Like its counterpart above, this one has a small and lightweight build and does its job as advertised. The good part is that it has neat LED indicators at the front, which lets you gauge the amount of power left in the device.

A smaller power backup complements its price which is less than $35. It delivers a good mix of performance and features. Again, the voltage range is 12 Volts. You will get over-charge protection and over-discharge protection as additional features.

Another mini UPS or power bank that can handle short and random power glitches without breaking a sweat is this one by Shanqiu Store. This one is a simple 8,800mAH power bank that barely weighs 0.77lbs. Also, the small build means you can keep it near the Wi-Fi router without any issues.

Interestingly, this device has multiple power outputs. So depending on the wattage of your device, you can use one of the power outputs. Also, it packs a power switch and battery level indicator. The Shanqiu store power bank can supply power to multiple devices simultaneously while being rather portable and compact. So, if you have several DC devices to run, here’s your pick.

Here’s yet another simple power bank for your router that has both a DC out port as well as a USB-A port which can charge a secondary device like a smartphone. The capacity is slightly lower at 7,800mAh and that won’t really affect the overall runtime of the power bank.

The Konnected power bank is compact enough to sit right above your router when it’s charging via the wall socket. Given its portable nature, you can carry it around easily to remote locations where you may want to power a router with a SIM card slot. You get all the standard features like auto-switching to backup power from AC power, wall mounting grooves, and up to 8 hours of backup.

Here’s a mini UPS meant to power routers and other devices that have a DC-in port. The reason we say this is that it comes attached with a DC-in female port on one end and a DC-out male port on the other. So, all you have to do is plug in your router’s adapter to one end of the UPS, connect the other end to your router, and you’re good to go.

Since the output end comes with a DC barrel connected soldered on, you get a few other adapters in the box that you can use if you wish to change the output port to other versions. Another USP of this product is the huge 15,000mAh capacity which makes it almost double the previous listing.

Total Power: 38,400mAh
