Unboxing

It doesn’t have any documentation like a quick start guide or warranty card inside the box.
Design and Build Quality
The Motivo H109 power bank weighs approximately 542 grams with overall dimensions that measures at 39 x 68.5 x 149 mm.
It may not be your typical mini power bank in terms of size, but despite its huge physical appearance you can still easily hold it, place it in your purse, or backpack and take it anywhere with you.
The entire body of the Motivo H109 is made of PC+ABS or Polycarbonate and Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene material providing a good quality between strength and durability, ensuring that the power bank can withstand occasional bumps or drops without easily breaking. The material is also lightweight and offering resistance against heat enhancing the safety and longevity of the device.
Even with this massive size, the power bank has a smooth curved edge which makes it easier and more comfortable to hold. It gives a modern look adding to its appeal and helps protect your other belongings from scratches when stored inside your bag.
On the top edge of the power bank, you’ll find the battery percentage indicator, a convenient lanyard, as well as the input and output ports for versatile connectivity.
For a stylish look, the built-in lanyard is made of leather and allows the power bank to be securely attached to bags or backpacks who frequently need to recharge their devices while on the move.

The power button, located on the left side edge also activates the LED flashlight with a double click. Holding the power button for nearly 20 seconds will deactivate the battery indicator.
On the right-side edge, it’s completely clean.
Aside from being a reliable source of portable power, the Motivo H109 is equipped with a built-in LED flashlight which adds an extra layer of function and convenience to its functionality which you can easily spot on the front.
The size of the LED flashlight measures at 5.3 x 2.3 cm and offers a stable bright illumination without adjustable settings to increase or decrease its brightness. It’s a great feature when you need to navigate through dimly lit environments or in need of emergency lighting during power outages, a dependable illumination source at your fingertips.
