As we become more and more reliant on tech, the number of gadgets and gizmos we carry on our person has increased. In my lifetime, we’ve had to give up hijinks like pushing each other into the pool. It’s one thing to have to deal with wet jeans the rest of the night, it’s a whole other story if your friend now has to replace their phone, earbuds, and watch. And with all these bits of tech we carry around in our pocket, we try to keep them charged so we can use them at a moments notice. Though there’s not always a reliable way to do that. That’s why you should add one more piece of tech to your bag when you head out the door and that’s a power bank like this one from Anker.
The Anker Prime power bank can keep all of your phones, tablets, smartwatches, and earbuds charged up and ready to go without you having to rely on their being a free outlet nearby. And for a limited time, Amazon has the portable charger selling at a 22% discount. Typically, you’d find this device going for $90, but the deal ends up taking it down by $20, leaving you only having to pay $70.
This Anker portable charger has a massive capacity of 9,600mAh. That’s enough power to fully charge an iPhone 17 Pro twice, so essentially you can extend the life of your phone three times over.
This power bank comes with two USB-C ports allowing you to charge up to two devices at once. You can top off your earbuds and phone simultaneously if you need. Each when used individually can reach a max output speed of 65W to quickly charge your devices. Doing so this way can help you bring a 14-inch MacBook Pro back up from nothing to 50% in just 32 minutes.
When you use both USB-C ports in unison, the power gets divided to one port outputting at a max of 45W while the second outputs at a max of 20W. The front LCD display can also let you know how much power is being outputted to each as well as the total percentage of battery left in the power bank.
USB-C Cables Doubles as Lanyard
The included USB-C cable is playing double duty here. Not only is it used for plugging into the USB-C port to charge one of your devices. When it’s not being used for that, you can store it into the clip at the top of the charger. Now it’s a braided loop that makes carrying the charger easier.
