While I love my giant power banks, I also know from experience that the best power bank is the one you have with you, and large power banks don’t lend themselves to being carried around. This power bank is small enough to fit in a pocket or purse, and big enough to give your devices a good charge.
If you use the USB-C port, it takes 2.5 hours to charge, and that increases to almost 5 hours if you use the USB-A port. It’s also a rugged and reliable unit. I’ve had several of these in constant use for a couple of years now, in jacket pockets, backpacks, and even the back of my truck, and they’ve been used, abused, and bounced around and still work just fine.
While I wouldn’t call them disposable, they are priced such that I also use them to charge GoPros and other action cameras when I’m shooting time-lapses (the camera’s battery doesn’t last long enough). If they get damaged or lost (or, as happened to me, fell off a cliff), I’m not out much money.
Online reviews of this power bank are very positive, praising its lightweight and compact design.
