10000mAh Ultralight Power Bank
The Nitecore Carbo 10000 is a lightweight high capacity 10000mAh power bank designed for everyday use anywhere. It weighs only 5.54 ounces, lighter than a typical phone, yet it still has enough power to charge the latest phone two times over! The ultra slim 11.5mm frame with snagless rounded corners means this fits in a pocket like a glove. This is a must-have for road warriors, outdoor enthusiasts, campers, first responders, and more, and an essential for emergency kits, or bug-out-bags.
USB-A/USB-C Ports with Quick Charge
The Carbo 10000 has a USB-A and a USB-C port. The USB-C QC port is an in-and-out port for both recharging the power bank and a lightning fast 20W QC charging of electronics. The USB-A port is capable of a 18W QC output, and can run at the same time as the USB-C port. For delicate devices such as bluetooth headphones and smart watches, the Carbo 10000 has a one-touch low current mode.
Designed for Outdoor
Traveling? The Carbo 10000 is approved for airline travel in accordance with UN38.3 protocols. Going outdoors? The lightweight yet strong carbon fiber case ensures that Carbo 10000 is highly resistant to puncture, abrasion, and drop up to 1.5 meter. Additionally, the Carbo 10000 is IPX5 rated water resistant, and provides safeguards against short-circuit, overcharge, over-discharge, and overheat, making it an excellent companion to Nitecore's portable solar panels and an essential for emergency kits, or bug-out-bags.

Customers praised this 10,000mAh power bank as "ultra lightweight" with a "sleek, compact size" perfect for backpacking and EDC. Many highlighted fast charging for phones and cameras. One customer noted it failed to hold a full charge after 6 months. Some mentioned LED indicator light bleed issues, though this was a minor concern.
Now will not hold a full charge after only 6 months. Will not fully charge.
This is an absolutely great piece of gear. I used it to power my Ace Pro camera on a multiple day BDR trip. It is ultra lightweight and has a low power mode ( runs the camera for 10+ hours). Because it is so lightweight it easily secured to my helmet with 3m double sided tape and strongVelcro strips
This Power Bank is a lovely addition to my EDC
The power bank worked great! Loved the light and sleek, compact size. Still need to experiment with the battery length but so far it’s awesome!
Best lightweight power bank there is. LOVE IT!
I love the design and function of the Nitcore Carbo 10000. It fits perfectly in my sling or pants pockets.
It charged my phone as described
After a few charging and discharging cycles, I came to realize that it works exactly as advertised. Lightweight and sufficient power for most backpacking trips.
Fast shipping also.
Light weight and easy to use. What’s not to like.
Excellent size, weight and charging.
I recently purchased a Carbo 10000 and used it on a 4-day backpacking trip. Here are the charges I obtained during the trip at 9-11,000’ in the Sierra Nevada at temps of 30-55 degrees F in mid-October.
—Apple Watch x 3
10% to 50%
38% to 50%
28% to 100%
—iPhone 12 mini x 3
18% to 90%
25% to 87%
10% to 60%
—Garmin inReach mini x 2
20% to 100%
0% to 100%
The Carbo 10000 seemed to never run out of power as two of those charges were done back at home after the trip. The design and weight of the Carbo 10000 are fantastic. Excellent product, just wish the price was a little lower, but still worth it to me. It’s far superior to other power banks I’ve used and researched.
The Carbo 10000 power bank is small, light and charges my iPhone fast. It is also perfect as back up power for my Fuji cameras. Charges fast too. A very nice product for my needs.
Just got mine today.
Pros:
- Fantastic size and weight for a 10K
- Curved edges do wonders and a good update compared to the regular non-carbo 10K
Cons:
- Lit up LED indicators bleed into the adjacent non-lit up indicators. Very surprised by this considering much cheaper power banks dont have this problem. I had to put my hand around the LED lights to check exactly how many were lit up because of the bleed. The update to the LED lights did not go far enough. This is a premium product to be used outdoors, please fix this. Refer to cheaper power banks like Anker.
Pros:
- Very portable and light for a 10K
- Rounded corners are a welcome update to the regular non-carbo series
- Feels great in the hands
Cons -
- The LED light bar update is insufficient. The light bar on this one was updated so it is no longer part of the power button. But the LED's still bleed into each others openings. So if i have 2 out of 3 bars worth of power, the 3rd bar gets light bleed from the one next to it. They need to isolate these LED lights enough so they dont cause bleed. Other power bank manufacturers can do it, so can Nitecore.
Very happy with the carbo 10000. Small, light, well built. I really like the rounded corners. It’s easy to slip it in your pocket. I got mine for my bug out bag. It will charge my I-phone 12 pro 2&1/2 times, plus it will charge my nitecore lights. As with all my Nitecore products the quality is top notch.
