Portable Charger Review




This is your standard portable backup battery charger. This is from  Key modle number KP-PB030A. It comes with a few extras like smart charging technology and a flashlight. Upon ordering this charger it comes with a USB to Micro USB charging cable and an instructions manual. Currently this power bank comes in pink and black for color choices.


To start with it is a 3000Mah capacity rechargeable battery. This is not a huge power bank but it will work to charge a cell phone a couple of times before it is drained. If you are looking for a compact battery charger so you do not have to be leashed to a wall this can help with that.


Now for charging this unit. It is very simple. All it requires is a powered USB port and a charging cable. You plug the cable into the power bank Micro USB slot. Next you plug the USB side into the powered USB port and it will start recharging your the power bank.


For charging of devices it is just as simple. You plug into the USB port of the backup power charger with the charging cable. Then plug the Micro USB into your device and it will start charging the device. If you have an apple type device you will need to use the lightning cord that uses a USB port to charge. It will charge those devices as well.


Next is the flashlight. It is fairly bright at 170 lumens. I do not know the difference in Lumens unless it is a huge difference other then by how far I can see with the beam. I was able to see 40 to 50 feet pretty clearly at what I had the torch aimed at. This light does not have the standard button to turn the light on. This is a twist type to turn on the light. Twist it to the right to turn the light off and to the left to power it up.


There are 2 ports on this device for charging. The USB port for charging your devices and the micro USB port to recharge the backup battery charger. With it having a limited power bank it does not need to offer any more ports then that. I was able to recharge my cellphone, partial charge on my tablet, my earbuds, and my Bluetooth speaker. I was able to charge this power bank from my laptop, desktop, 110 to USB adapter, and my socket adapter in my car. It only takes about 30 to 45 minutes to recharge this depending on the source. These ports also offer smart charging tech. This is where it detects the maximum speed your device can be charged at and charge at that pace. It also prevents over charging and discharging.


If you are looking for a rechargeable flashlight or a compact power bank this is one to consider. It is small enough to go into your pocket and not feel like you are lugging around rocks. The light is pretty bright for its compact size. The lights are also LED so they will hvae a long life. It is also very easy to use when charging a device or the flashlight. I would like to thank Tii Trading inc and affiliates for sending me this backup battery charger flashlight combo to try out and share my opinion.
