GazzaGarratt 11,035 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I'm in need of a really good Powerbank as Dax needs his iPad everywhere. Equally when we're away, we need something to keep a DVD player running. Hoping there's some decent deals between 20-40 pounds. Any ideas people?

Equally how long does it take to fully charge it before taking it out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diddums 4,346 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Well the one I posted is 20000mah, Bobby's one is 26800 or slightly less than 30% more for double the price. I'm not saying it's not a bad bank, but I have 6 months on mine and I absolutely love it. It'll charge an iPad from 0 to 100 at least twice, probably three times. It charged my LG G4 to full 4-5 times. GazzaGarratt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The3rdWalker 1,270 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 My bank charges our iPhone X about 8 times and my iPad Air 2 5 times a cycle. Charge times depend on the adapter and the cable into the power bank so I want to say ours takes 4 hours for a complete charge? We’ve had two of them for two years now and zero complaints. Well worth what we paid for them. On most trips I never need to plug into a wall outlet.

No. Input is either Micro USB or Applewhateverthefuckit'scalled. Output is two USB ports, so you can use whatever you want really.

GazzaGarratt 11,035 Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 As Dave's is only £20 it seems like a decent bet. If we find it doesn't do what we need it to do, I'll look into yours Rob. At nearly £50, it's just a stretch too far for my budget. Cheers both.

That's actually brilliant mate considering it can charge itself via solar charge. Its only £9 more than @Diddums so when I order today I'll probably switch to this one. tronic44 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
