SCUD PC-6000E-GD Elf Ultra-Slim Portable External Battery Backup Charger Power Bank 6000mAh,Champagne Gold

I have 3 (from Newegg.com), 2 in Gold and 1 in Silver (aluminium).Pros:6000mAh rating is technically sufficient for: 3 x standard smart phone (1500-1600mAh), 2 x iPhone 6Plus (2900mAh) and about 1/2 iPad 2 (11000mAh).It is flat and stylish, and has good finish, and fits well to back of your phone if holding both units while charging.Has a 4-light "power" meter, but it's a relative guide. It's mainly useful to indicate it's low on power and time to recharge.Cons:Requires pushing a button to start power (in initial use, you may forget about that and find your device wasn't rechargingAfter normal 1 year use, the power button sank & dislodged, but appears still functional.The quality of power cells is suspect with all non-OEM batteries. Technically, Lithium batteries should last many discharge/charge cycles. According to one report, if you allow only a 25% discharge before recharging, the # of cycles can be over 2,000. I have gone through 10 cheaper "lipstick" batteries (2200-3000mAh) and they don't last long probably because of poor power cell(s).

A nice looking light weight compact power bank. Charging time is a bit long and although it's 6000mah, it only charges my Samsung Note2 battery half full then power run out, Samsung Note2 battery is only 3200 mah. Tried a couple times and same result, returned it.

easy to carry. slim to strap to phone if needed.
