Explained simply
Power banks are rechargeable batteries that let people charge phones, laptops and other devices away from a wall socket. Their capacity, measured in milliamp-hours, gives an indication of how much energy they store, while wattage describes how quickly they can supply it; higher figures can support larger devices or several devices at once.
EcoFlow is a company that makes portable power products, including these two models. The Rapid Pro X stores more energy than the Rapid Pro and has three USB-C ports and a built-in cable, while both can provide power to multiple devices.
Recharge speeds can depend on using more than one input or buying a separate charger or dock, so the quoted times do not necessarily apply with the power bank alone. These features are relevant to people who need portable power for several devices, including higher-demand electronics such as laptops.
