Onite Pandora 12000mah External Battery Portable Power Bank
The bottom line on the Onite battery is this: it works. In the past I’ve tried several different reserve power supplies for my gadgets, and I have had mixed results. However, there is no ambiguity about this battery: it’s large, effective, versatile and well designed. It’s one of the largest external battery that I’ve come across in terms of capacity (with whopping 12,000 mAh of charge), and yet it’s much smaller in size than some of its larger near-competitors.
In order to test this battery charger I decided to completely drain my small electronic devices so that I get as clean of an idea of this battery’s efficiency as I can. (As an aside, when you really want to discharge them, the consumer electronics has become really robust in recent year. It took me much longer than I thought it would. I had to blast music from my iPhone for hours and hours …) I discover that I was able to fully charge all of my small electronic devices with plenty of power to spare. Most of them I was able to charge several times, and thanks to dual USB ports, was able to charge up to two devices at once. Full charging usually takes between one to two hours. I’ve tested this battery with iPhone 5S, [[ASIN:B005VGFQXE iPhone 4S]], [[ASIN:B004ZLV4JG iPhone 3G]], [[ASIN:B004HZYA6E Kindle Keyboard]], Kindle Paperwhite,[[ASIN:B004XQWGHW Mobee Magic Bar]], [[ASIN:B005FVNHBI Jabra SPORT Bluetooth Stereo Headset ]], and the first generation [[ASIN:B00365F6IM iPad (32GB, Wifi + 3G)]]. Oftentimes I was able to fully charge four or five devices with just one fully charged Onite battery. I was also able to charge my iPad completely, and even charge it to almost half its capacity the second time around. If there was an easy way of connecting this battery to an ultrabook I would not be surprised if it would be possible to charge it to a decent amount as well.
The battery comes with an AC charger, micro USB cable, iPhone 30-pin adapter and an Apple lightning adapter. The inclusion of iPhone adapter is very convenient for those of us in the iOS land – most manufacturers of these batteries just assume that we’ll bring our own cables.
This Onite battery is also beautifully designed. You would not be ashamed of being spotted with this battery at a trendy tech conference. The battery is very easy to use and operate, and overall vey intuitively designed.
I am very pleased and impressed with this rechargeable external battery. It is effective, portable, and very affordable. I would recommend it to anyone who travels a lot or uses their gadgets on the go all the time. It can even be carried around in your messenger bag during your daily commute – it will not add that much extra weight.
