Cheapest Powerbank 5500mah Review

Most people now have high end mobile devices and cameras. And all these gadgets no matter how expensive they are, consumes battery. The battery will run out fast especially if you're browsing the internet or playing games non-stop. then, what you need is a powerbank.

 What is a powerbank?
                 A Powerbank is a portable device used to put energy into a secondary cell or rechargeable battery by forcing an electric current through it's reserved energy/power. It can solve many mobile devices power supply problems in terms of power shortage and can make your work and travel carefree. Powerbanks appear attractive,compact,small in size, light weight and easy to carry.

I will be going on a vacay (boracay island) by next week, So I really needed a powerbank for me to stay updated and can instantly post my pictures on the social networking sites. I was browsing the web in search for a good and useful Powerbank with higher "mAH" because the higher mAH is, the higher storage capacity. So, you can enjoy more shots per charge from your camera, mobile phone, and tablets.

Some powerbanks are way over my budget, so I went over to a CD-r King store (a popular store here in the Philippines which offers quality and affordable products) in search for a cheaper Powerbank. And Good Lord they have these:

 My CD r-King MOBILE POWER BANK 5500mAH!

priced only at 480pesos (US$12) This is a steal right?
They only have (2) available units left when I got there.

Suitable for most mobile phones, digital cameras, pocket wifi, and tablets. 

Inside the box are: The cd-r king mobile Power bank 5600mAH capacity, A micro-USB cable to charge the power bank and a Connector pin.

The USB cable is about 40cm long. and it doesn't come up with an adaptor charger but you can always buy at any retail stores or you can plug it on your laptop/ CPU for charging.

Zoomed in: for the power output information and  usage time.

What I like about this power bank is its very easy to use, just plug your device, press the power ON button and charging will automatically begin. And if you're done charging, Just disconnect its cable and it will automatically turn OFF itself. There is also an LED display indicator of how many percent of  remaining "power supply" same goes when your recharging your powerbank. The Percent indicator will increase up to (98 percent). unlike other powerbanks that has indicator lights only. 


It can also charge (2) gadgets at the same time. What I don't like is the thickness, 2.3cm in width. It's kind of bulky in my pocket. So, I bring it in a purse.


Size comparison to a smartbro Pocket wifi.

 So, MUST TRY or LAST TRY?

 I say it's a MUST TRY.

 PROS: Easy to Use, LED display for Percent indicator, Nice and compact design.

CONS: Not pocket size friendly but can fit in a purse.
