Pros: Can charge multiple devices at once
Cons: Takes a full day to power up the charger
As you might expect, most people in the Traveller office won’t leave the house without their battery pack. Associate social media manager, Kayla Brock, has confessed that she’s meticulous about her phone battery, so having a portable charger that’s easy to carry around all day, every day, is a must.
Editor review: “I’ve had my Miady 20W portable charger for five years and I’m as happy with it now as the day I got it. I’ve never had any need for anything else. A big selling point for me is the two output ports, which I can use to charge multiple devices at once, and the 10,000 mAh makes that possible. As I use it every day, I love that it’s small enough to fit in my purse while travelling, but it’s still quite thick so it feels robust, like it won’t break on you. This device is really easy to charge up – you just plug a small cord, that’s included, into its side and then plug that into the wall. Admittedly, it does about a day to fully charge it, so you have to be quite organised and remember to do that in advance of your travels. However, it has a high capacity when full, giving you enough juice for at least three or four charges to your phone.” Kayla Brock, associate social media manager
