Optimized Charging Behavior
Your iPhone may slow charging at 80% to protect the battery. This can happen if it gets too warm during charging as part of iOS 17's thermal control strategy. Charging will resume once the device cools down. Moving your iPhone to a cooler area may help.
4. Maintenance
Care and Handling
- Avoid exposing the power bank to extreme temperatures (hot or cold), direct sunlight, or high humidity.
- Do not drop, disassemble, or attempt to repair the device yourself.
- Clean the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Keep the charging ports free from dust and debris.
Battery Health and Safety
The Baseus Picogo Power Bank incorporates advanced safety features to protect both the power bank and your devices. It uses an NTC temperature control chip that monitors temperature 18,000 times per hour and advanced graphene material for efficient heat dissipation (5,119mm² max. heat dissipation area). This ensures stable voltage and long-term battery health, along with 9 layers of safety protections against surges, overheating, and voltage spikes.

5. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause / Solution |
|---|---|
| Power bank not charging | Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the power bank and the power adapter. Try a different cable or power adapter. |
| Device not charging wirelessly | Ensure your device is MagSafe compatible and properly aligned with the power bank. Remove any thick cases or metal objects that may interfere with wireless charging. Ensure the power bank has sufficient charge. |
| Device not charging via USB-C | Check if the USB-C cable is firmly connected to both the power bank and your device. Try a different USB-C cable. Ensure the power bank has sufficient charge. |
| Charging slows down at 80% | This is normal behavior for iPhones (iOS 17 and later) to protect battery health, especially if the device is warm. Charging will resume once the device cools down. Move the device to a cooler environment if possible. |
| Magnetic attachment is weak | Ensure your phone has built-in MagSafe or is using a MagSafe-compatible case. Non-MagSafe cases may reduce magnetic strength. |
