Spotlight On Branded Power Banks

SuccessfSquid Powerbank Miniul promotional products need to be both functional and desirable. With current demands on mobile battery life, branded power banks make the perfect promotional gift.

If you’re going to be away from mains power for some time, or if your phone or tablet simply won’t last the full working day, branded power banks can be invaluable. Able to keep your USB-powered mobile devices going as long as you do, these portable gizmos let you top up your battery wherever you are, ensuring you stay connected.

Power banks come in all shapes, weights and capacities – from emergency credit-card-size ones for a quick boost to keep you going until you get home to high capacity units.

When choosing branded power banks, factors such as size and weight are important but capacity is even more crucial. It should be noted that a power bank won’t deliver their full advertised capacity to a device as some energy is lost through heat generated and voltage conversion. If a power bank does not expressly state otherwise, expect to achieve around 70 percent efficiency.

Input ratings are key when it comes to recharging the power bank – the higher the figure the more quickly it will charge. Some branded power banks support a feature known as pass-through charging, which allows them to function as a USB hub of sorts, meaning one can simultaneously charge both the power bank and the mobile device, ensuring the power bank is always topped up. You’ll pay more for this luxury, however.Branded Power Banks Colours

The ideal power bank carefully balances useful capacity with portability, value, fast charging/recharging, multiple outputs and high-end features such as pass-through charging and LCD displays.
