We choose the order and the words. A brand, an ad, or a future commission does not decide what is listed or where it sits.
Independence
We choose the order and the words. A brand, an ad, or a future commission does not decide what is listed or where it sits.
- A brand does not preview the order before publication.
- A partnership does not decide whether a model is listed.
- A review is not rearranged around who might pay a commission.
What gets listed
- Models are listed because they are portable power stations, not because a brand partnered with the site.
- A model can show specs only, or it can include a published battery test. Both can appear on the site.
- A review is a selection we make. It is not limited to models that have a published battery test.
Specs and sources
- The fields and the rules are public on the how we review page.
- A number in a sentence has to match the spec table.
- A downside is written only when we already have a sourced note. If we don't, the section stays empty.
- A field with no source says Not listed. The brand's capacity is not written up as if someone else had tested the battery.
What a brand may and may not do
| Request | Allowed |
|---|---|
| Send a sample or a specification sheet | Yes. We check the sheet, and a sample would be labeled. |
| Correct a wrong spec with a source | Yes. We check the correction, then the date changes. |
| Preview or edit the order of a review | No. |
| Pay for a higher place on a review | No. |
Samples
We are not taking samples right now. If a brand later sends a unit, the model page would say so, and the unit would not decide the order of a review.
Checking the facts
Specs are checked against the brand's page or another published source. Prices keep the date we read them. A published battery test keeps its URL. A number that fails the check stays off the site.
Conflicts
Portable Power Rank does not sell these power stations. Some buttons may be affiliate links. A commission or partnership would be named on the disclosure page and would not move a model on a review.
Corrections
If a spec or a price is wrong, write to carterwzq@gmail.com. After we check it, the page is updated and the date changes.
