Powapacs - Avoid !

[Nicholas Cole]

I have something very similar from Lidl that goes on their 24v batteries. Lasts ages.

Wish I could find one to fit Ozito cordless tool batteries! I suspect that one for another brand would fit but I can't seem to work out what that might be.

It’s great Ian and the usual power banks can’t get near em because of the speed they charge at themselves.
On the 5 ah battery it’s around 1 full iphone and a bit charge per fuel lamp on the battery so 4-5 charges before the battery needs charging which as you’ll know, takes 25minsView attachment 22981

Looks a little bulky for my tackle bag, but you can't argue with a 25 min charge time.

Dimensionally it’s probably not a lot different to a big power bank. Taller but shorter.
Obviously you can reduce the height by using smaller batteries.
For me it’s irrelevant because if I’m taking a power bank fishing then I’m doing at least 24hours on the bank and I’ll be packing accordingly to suit so an extra inch taller….. not gonna make any odds at all….for me that is.

If you want the best use a cordless drill battery and an adapter.
I use one of my Milwaukee 4/5ah batteries and I’ll easily get 5 full phone charges out of 1 battery. Done it for years the batteries are bomb proof.
Best thing is they charge to full capacity in 25 mins

Yep. I use the Ryobi version so it will do all my home tools as well. Very quick to charge the batteries. 25 quid for the USB attachment.

There is also a makita version for those that use makita
