    I can't believe how irresponsible you were opening the powerbank, no sign of a explosion containment pie dish.

    I just used an unheard of before method of opening a powerbank.
    Tools you'll need, a slide hammer a hot glue gun, some plastic pads that fit into the slide hammer, a vice and some isopropyl alcohol.
    Simply stick 2 of the plastic pads on a corner on opposite sides of the powerbank (allow glue to cool for max adhesion), clamp one side into the vice and hook the slide hammer onto the other side.
    Give it a whack, not too hard, and not too soft, the corner will pop up, unfortunately you'll need to do this on each corner (mine came completely off on the third, but results will vary)
    Now the annoying bit, to remove the tabs with the glue on, soak the glue with the isopropyl alcohol and use a PLASTIC spudger/ old credit card to lift around the edges.
    It won't come off easily, but it will come off, just take your time (if you stick the pads with a slight overhang, you'll find it easier to push them off)

    The two chips are probably for QC2.0 and QC3.0

    This item would be excellent to power a TS-80 portable soldering pencil.

    I thought Samsung made LG batteries. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

    Wrap it in insulating tape, job done.

    Just bought one of these, sadly the leads that come with it aren't good enough to use with the QC port. I thought mine was a dud until I tried using a decent Anker lead.
