Portable power banks (external battery packs with USB output) are classified under 8507.60 as lithium-ion accumulators. The charging circuit and USB ports are ancillary. Solar-panel power banks (with attached solar panel for recharging) are 8507.60 — the solar panel is ancillary to the battery. MagSafe/wireless charging power banks are 8507.60. Very high-capacity power stations (100Wh+, with AC outlet) may be 8504.40 if the inverter function is dominant. EU rate is 1.8%; US is 3.4%. Note: power banks over 100Wh (≈27,000 mAh at 3.7V) are typically restricted or prohibited in checked luggage on aircraft — this is a logistics consideration, not a customs issue.
