      I wonder how much time you have been on this site in a year, and how much you were saving as a result of the bargains.

  • jimmyj316 on 07/05/2015 - 14:06

    I got one of these last week. One of the best features is the QI charging of the battery pack. QI output would be nice, but everything I've read says these sorts of battery packs with QI output are really inefficient.

    Worth the $10.

    • zealmax on 07/05/2015 - 14:35

      Depends on how much QI you have. I am no Goku.

      • scrimshaw on 07/05/2015 - 18:13
        +5

        Qi output levels are over 9000mah.

    I have no interest in buying this but had to give you a +ve for the description.

  • bchliu on 07/05/2015 - 14:25
    +1

    Its not bad unit. Only downside is the 1A output and is slower when paired with the later phones that take 2A or the variable 9V fast chargers. Either way, still works though (but dont expect the battery level to go up when you are using your device at the same time as charging).

  • UglyPanda on 07/05/2015 - 14:28

    How is this different from those Xiaomi 10400 ? Maybe a stupid question.

    • nevercompensate on 07/05/2015 - 14:48
      +1

      Xiaomi 10400 has a higher output current and has a higher capacity. Pretty sure its bulkier as well though.

    • Fobsessive on 07/05/2015 - 23:16

      This is smaller and fits in your pocket and only holds enough for one charge

  • lukebr on 07/05/2015 - 14:29

    i bought this in the last weeks deal and like someone writes above it does NOT do Qi charging of your phone, only Qi charging of the device itself…

    i mistakenly thought that it did and now im a sad panda :(

    its still a great deal though as its eneloop batteries and thus much better than the 20 or so vendor branded battery chargers ive been given at IT events/roadshows

  • bamzero on 07/05/2015 - 14:41

    So what's the actual model they are selling here? I see mention of QE-PL102, QE-PL103, QE-QL103 and with power ratings anywhere from 2650mAh to 2900mAh..

    Edit: OK, guessing not the QE-QL103 as I don't think that has QI.

    • omniX32 on 07/05/2015 - 16:29

      Model #: QE-PL103TA-K
      Catalogue #: PW8952

      • bamzero on 07/05/2015 - 18:54

        Yeah, I did see that. I guess I was directing this question more at those who have bought one previously. So the capacity is rated at 2850mAh as shown in the second picture?

        • Fobsessive on 07/05/2015 - 23:15
          +1

          It is 2850mAH as confirmed by my box and booster. The cell is made in Japan.

    • ricodbn on 08/05/2015 - 12:03

      QE - PL103 Does have QI for charging the unit only.

  • ss281 on 07/05/2015 - 14:48

    very good battery. Got one last year it lasts forever. Compact and well built. But better for android than iphone users because of the micro usb plug. It charges the PS vita very well

    • Scaregdearimasu on 08/05/2015 - 09:17

      are you charging a vita 1000 or 2000 with this?
      from what I can find online other than you is that the vita needs 1.5 amps to charge and this battery only supplies 1amp.

      • hdieu on 17/05/2015 - 14:38

        it charges the vita 1000 with no problem, and very quickly. I guess it's better than it's advertised.

  • syousef on 07/05/2015 - 16:10

    Bought one the other week. I get about a 50% boost in charge on my Galaxy S4 before it drains. Kind of a waste really. But at least it is tiny and holds charge for a while so I'll keep it in my bag in case I'm stuck.

    • Fobsessive on 07/05/2015 - 23:13

      Are you sure your booster is completely full before only outputing 50%?

      • syousef on 08/05/2015 - 07:57

        It had been left on charge for a day. So yes.

    • bamzero on 09/05/2015 - 11:22
      +1

      Got one and tried a charge of my Moto G after a full charge of the power bank (led had turned off)

      With my USB meter connected it dumped 1680mah into my phone until it shut down (taking phone from 16% to 86% from memory)

      Charging the power bank took 2595mah till it switched off)

      I know I won't get the full 2850mah out of it but thought it would be more than ~60%.

      Hopefully it improves after a couple of cycles, but these things have been discontinued by Panasonic, who knows how long they've been sitting around on the shelves. The batteries might not be in such great condition any more.

  • Randxyz123 on 07/05/2015 - 16:11

    I can imagine that song being used as a TV ad or something haha.

    You should definitely make a video of that and send it to DSE!

    Anyone know the maximum output current?

    • bchliu on 07/05/2015 - 16:42

      1A - stated in a couple of posts already above

      • qwerty-4321 on 07/05/2015 - 18:08

        Oh, sorry. I'm on mobile so I didn't see them.

        That's going to be a very slow rate of charge.

        • Fobsessive on 07/05/2015 - 23:13

          Isn't 1A the regular rate for older phones?

  • D6C1 on 07/05/2015 - 16:56

    Can you charge this with a USB and a wall charger?

    Thanks

    • Fobsessive on 07/05/2015 - 23:12

      Yes you can plug a wall charger into it.

  • neonlight on 07/05/2015 - 16:59

      The cable is integrated with this one, with the Xiaomi the included cable is detached.

    • Fobsessive on 07/05/2015 - 23:12

      just over an hour in my case..

  • ilikecheapcrap on 07/05/2015 - 18:44

    Can you safely leave it overnight to charge.. I bought it and the manual says it has an indicator for remaining battery.. but all I see is a red dot :)
    Can i just connect to a power adaptor (manual says charge via laptop….)
    As you can see I failed electronics at high-school.. thank goodness I am in IT.. uh oh :)

    • bamzero on 07/05/2015 - 18:52

      I saw a review, said LED is green for 100%-60, orange for 60%-30% and red below 30%. It will automatically turn off if no load is present or the battery gets too low.

      As far as charging it should be safe to leave plugged in overnight. Once full it will just stop charging.

    • plentifoo on 07/05/2015 - 22:06

      plugged mine into a wall usb charger, seems to work fine.

  • spiderdash on 08/05/2015 - 16:50

    After buying it found, although it looks cool, but cannot be used with the slim body laptops/notebooks, badly designed usb connector body.

  • idonteven on 25/05/2015 - 14:07

    Anyone got good results with this?

    I only managed a 50% charge on this with my LG G3 which has 3000mah.

    So this should have charged almost all of it. Maybe I got a dud?

    • bamzero on 25/05/2015 - 15:31

      About the same as I got in my test

      Personally I think these things have been sitting around too long and the batteries have lost a fair bit of their capacity.
