Biolite Charge 80

Description

At $79, the juice from this portable power bank is definitely worth the squeeze

Last year BioLite, a Brooklyn-based outdoor gear brand, introduced the Charge-PD series, a line of portable power banks with one USB-A and two USB-C ports, which the company says could offer “safe, efficient charging up to 18W,” or more than three times faster than a traditional USB port. Available in 6,000mAh, 10,000mAh and 20,000mAh models, the line seemed ideal for powering everything from smartphones to, theoretically, laptops.
