I think you're right and I was just memeing, but I'm curious how the battery percentage went up
I think the charge controller counts the amount of energy that has passed through it.
You're probably mostly correct. Some of them do literally count that, but (to my knowledge) most measure voltage as a battery with lower charge usually outputs less and vice versa.
My guess is it didn't, and the numbers were pulled out the OP's ass.
Otherwise, idk how power banks monitor their percentage of charge, but being that it's a percentage, if you fuck up the capacity, the same amount of energy will take up a higher percentage of that capacity. /shrug
Physicists hate this one weird trick...
