The thing to love about this battery is that it is completely self contained. To charge it you just flip out the tines of the plug and plug it into an outlet. To use it, the cables are built in and neatly stored so you don't need to schlep around a bunch of cables. It has an apple plug, usb micro and a usb C all built in. This makes it great for family use if Dad has an android phone while mom uses Apple. It also has a standard USB A port to plug in any USB device you wish. And you can charge more than one device at the same time. I used it at a theme park and also in Europe and was able to charge my phone while it was all stuck in my pocket while we were walking around. The only Con is that it's fairly large, but that's what gives it enough power to charge multiple devices in a day and still have enough left over for emergencies. All of these batteries charge fairly slowly, at least the ones I've used. Not sure if it's possible to make a battery quick charger but it would be nice. It is a slightly dated design at this point but I've owned one since 2019. Were I to update it I would probably make it a bit smaller, drop the USB micro cable an add spots to wirelessly charge an apple watch and phone. (not sure if those can be used for other brands but it's what I use right now). I would also add a flashlight but that's not really necessary for it to do it's core functions which it does well. 5 star product and I will not travel without it. Ideal for long trips or long days at a theme park or beach. Read more
UPDATE** ordered Feb 2021 used it all the time, carried in my purse daily. July 2022 it has stopped working. For the price, life and convenience I am ordering another one! Just what I was looking for! I have been in the market for awhile for a new power pack, but was slow to pull the trigger as I wanted ALL THE THINGS. And THIS IS IT! Quick charging, pass thru charging, built in dual cables and power plug. The case is wonderful bc I put extra, longer cords in it for over night trips. I can charge my iPhone, my Apple Watch and my kids tablet all at the same time! Read more
This is great! Charged all my devices super fast, it’s slim, and very portable! I love that it doesn’t need a cable itself to charge. Only thing is sometimes it’s difficult tucking the cables back into their slots. Read more
Great charger for our busy family. No matter who needs a charge (Apple or Android) the charger works great and keeps a strong battery life. Read more
I have bought more than a dozen of these over the last couple of years for me and my family of 4. They do exactly what they are supposed to do -- elegantly and competently -- until the charger cord frays and breaks internally. My family and I get about 2-3 months of use out of them (all with Apple Lightning cable) before the the cable either near the main module or by the charger head wears and frays. Then -- even though the battery is still functional -- it's useless for whichever products you are using. (Unless you get a separate Lightning cable, which defeats the whole purpose!) You can see the fraying in photo 1 at the head, and the weakening of the cable at the base in photo 2. This one has had about 1 month of regular use. It has gotten to the point where I have started slicing off the broken Lightning cable (see photo 3), and gifting them to friends who have Android products. Read more
I use this daily for my cell phone (Android) and as a USB port to power the UV light I use in my chip repair business. The battery life holds up well, and I can keep up with my phone usage while plugged into my phone. I especially like the case it comes with. I store money, pills, notes, checks, etc., in the mesh pocket area. It takes a while to recharge, plugging into the wall, but it is worth it for the money. Read more
Bought this for vacation and worked great. Love all the different plugs. Does take a awhile to charge it but doesn’t bother me. I just charged it every night before bed time. Read more
This charges my phone really fast, I love how the three cords are built in. I like the size, good to have around when you need to charge your phone. I also love the outlet wall charger, make it really easy to charge. Read more
