Batteries and Chargers

REVIEW – Still thinking all power banks are the same. I can’t say that beyond the adage “the best powerbank is the one you have with you” I haven’t also found most of them to be pretty darn similar other than form and maybe a unique feature. Well, Real Graphene’s new G-Lite 60 Power Bank […]

REVIEW – I’ve shied away from giant USB batteries for camping because it means lugging them around. But when I look back, a majority of my expeditions are “car camping” where weight isn’t an issue. More and more of my gadgets are finally coming with USB-C. Let’s take a look at the Zendure SuperTank Pro

REVIEW – Why would you want to carry around the big charger that arrived in the box with your laptop when there’s a smaller, lighter, faster option that has an extra port for charging something else? I don’t know either. Let’s look at the Hyppr Sonic 100w GaN charger and see if it stacks up

REVIEW – Are you one of those people who believes you can never be too thin or have too many portable device chargers? Me, too. I depend on my iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and a collection of Bluetooth speakers—and they all need to be charged repeatedly. Portable chargers can help to keep you on the

REVIEW – The devices we love always seem to need a charge. From iPhone or Android to tablets and laptops, they all need power. USB-C power banks have changed things in that you can juice up your USB-C laptop now, but what if your laptop isn’t USB-C equipped? Enter the PD Pioneer from RAVPower complete

If there is a way to consolidate chargers, and to simplify cable management with wireless charging, I’m all for it. Can this 2-in-1 wireless charger from CHOETECH help clean up the desk?
