    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Per the manufacturers directions i connected the output with a very short usb to mini usb directly into a small 2200mah dead power bank as opposed to a phone or tablet

    Plugging it into the phone whether or not it is off there are systems operating all the time thereby reducing the efficiency
