Frequently Asked Questions
The capacity of power banks are commonly measured in milliampere hours (mAh). As a general rule, the bigger the number, the more energy charge the powerbank can store and the longer it will work before needing to be recharged.
Ideal for use in and around your home or to run electronics while you're out and about, power stations provide power for your off-grid activities.
They often feature multiple output options, such as USB and high-capacity 12V connectivity.
Uninterruptable Power Supplies (UPS) provide emergency backup power when the main power source fails. This makes it ideal for protecting hardware such as computers to prevent a loss of data.
The average lifespan of an LED is up to 50,000 hours - 50 times longer than a traditional incandescent lightbulb.

Smart lights connect wirelessly via WiFi or Bluetooth. Some require a separate hub, while others can be controlled via an app on your smartphone.
When replacing a bulb, it's important to know what type of fitting you need for the replacement.
E14 / E27
Also known as Edison caps, they resemble a screw shape with the number referring to the diameter of the fitting.
B22
Bayonet bulbs use a twist and lock motion to install. Unlike the Edison caps, they instead feature two prongs on either side.
GU10
These are commonly used for spotlights in kitchens or bathrooms. They connect via two pins on the base of the bulb.
