A simple search of 'philips power bundle' brought it up for me. I agree though, sometimes wonder why some bother posting deals as often get a load of criticism for doing so as they have either missed the previous deal has been posted, or couldn't find it.

Perhaps worth checking the rules before being so rude to people who are simply trying to help others!?

Anyway OP, this is a good deal and a great bit of kit - a quality product which I bought over a month ago which I can thoroughly recommend.

Sorry. Mod please delete. Before I posted. I did search already. Somehow it doesn't come up

This was over 4 weeks ago, surely a reminder doesn't do any harm? I bought one and can recommend if for all your charging needs

I do not believe that i was being rude. To me it would make more sense to bring back the original thread which already has all the comments on it and it's still active.

I can never find them either. Search is simply awful and been like that for years ...

Bought this a few weeks ago, very happy.

I bought one when I saw the last deal. It lasted a week and then would barely charge anything. Kept cutting out and going slow charge, fast charge and cut out again.

On my second one now and it been going okay. Thought by buying phillips I'd avoid all the cheap and nasty chinese unsafe clones!

Bad Actor to wacko911

10 Jul 16 #17

This looks very similar to the Icefox I bought off Amazon for a fiver. They are all Chinese made and probably in the same factory so wouldn't hang my faith on the 'brand'.
In saying that, my Icefox has been working fine.

Ordered. Thanks. There might be 1% TCB if you pay and then collect.

10 Jul 16 #18

Same factory, but using same components? No, probably not. Philips will insist on top quality components for UK market, as they'll get sued out the door if these turn out to be dangerous.

The chinese knock-offs will come from the same factory, but use much lower quality/cheap componets, as there is very little comeback if one of their devices blows up half way around the world purchased through fleabay.

Bad Actor

10 Jul 16 #19

Bought mine from Amazon not Fleabay and it's got a CE mark.
The CE mark, is that a variable then?

misterleoni

10 Jul 16 #20

just because the shell looks the same, doesn't mean anything at all. how many variations of boxes with ports in them can there be?

misterleoni

10 Jul 16 #21

had mine since the last deal - absolutely chuffed to bits with it - lovely build quality and the cables feel great quality too. Can't fault it, and whatever anyone says brands with a good rep won't generally just rebadge a poorly made or dangerous unit as it is simply not worth the repercussions

maxz

10 Jul 16 #22

Supplied cables are top quality cables, good iPhone cable alone cost 5 to 6 quid.

Depends whether it's a genuine European Comformity mark or Chinese Engineered mark, the second one has been created to fool people into thinking they are buying an assured product.

charming! Been posted.... a month ago.... so what?! What badges are you going to get? I use HUKD regularly for the obvious reason. I see the same mobile phone deal been posted again and again. So? At the end of the day, its all about saving. £££. Have some heat OP!

4 weeks 1 day is 29 days? Did they shorten June?

11 Jul 16 #28

I've had 5 gadgets charging on this at once and haven't heard anything from the unit

misterleoni

11 Jul 16 #29

Yup. And Lightning cable is Made For iPhone certified, which is nice.

Repost after a month is fine -but sensibly, the original should now be expired.
Heated and pressed expired on old

Does it work as a quick charger for samsung phones?

I bought a couple of these a few weeks ago from Argos. They work great and it's nice that they come with some cables.

"Complies with US Department of Energy (DOE 5)Efficiency Level."

Does this mean that it can work on 110 volts, that would be handy when I travel to the USA later this year

bollybobinson

11 Jul 16 2 #34

I think perhaps your post does not look like someone trying to be helpful....

Something like " Already posted bud " would look helpful, instead of "Cold. Already posted" and then jumping down the throat of the person who was "trying to be helpful" by posting the deal.... Not all of us treat this like a competition...

I realise there are more than a few "Sheldons"... or perhaps "Stewarts" out there ,,,,

eh Bud?

:wink:

oh by the way, thanks op

I have one, it is good but has a high pitched squeaky noise all of the time it is charging. I read about this before buying it, just means it may not be suitable right next to a bed as it is quite annoying

You can use Google instead it's much better; type your search term then at the end put "site:www.hotukdeals.com".

Thank you. Point taken. I wonder if I can edit my earlier post

bollybobinson

11 Jul 16 #42

Mate, friend, buddy, bud, chum, pal or something along those lines, something to imply one is being friendly and helpful rather than curt and obtuse.

:man:

Ordered 5pm Sunday afternoon, delivered 7pm Sunday evening for £3.95. This is not to some metropolitan area but a small village in Cheshire. That's impressive. Argos has just really gone up in my estimation.

As for reposts, so what, get a life FFS. I also missed the first post, gutted.

Loads left in the North East if anyone still needs one. Just picked mine up. Seems like a quality bit of kit and no strange noises from the adaptor when connected to my phones. Cheers op.

Wolfsbane2k

11 Jul 16 #48

Just grabbed 2 of these from my "kinda local" store. Sounds like the quality isn't the best, so will be very careful when testing them.
Cheers.

Is it suitable for fast charging (Qualcomm® quick charge 2.0/3.0)?

enragedbeard

11 Jul 16 #50

Will be returning mine. Phone supports 2amp but it's taking 15 minutes to do 2-3%!

omgpleasespamme

11 Jul 16 #51

2 hours delivery (that would be astonishing and border-line unbelievable)? Or 1 week 2 hours?

Speedsurfer

11 Jul 16 #52

Anyone know what the max amps provided per port? 8amps over 5 ports so a max of 1.6 per port? Or are they variable depending on the number of ports in use?

brenandlaura

11 Jul 16 #53

Thanks Op heat added :smiley: were going camping and there is 5 of us going. All of us have phones that will need charging and only 3 plug sockets on our hook-up. This is really gonna help!!!

dalecheesy

11 Jul 16 1 #54

2.4 amp port maximum depending on how many in use and what amp the rest are drawing according to the specs.

Azureus

11 Jul 16 1 #55

I would have doubted it too. They do same day delivery and I got it 2 hours later on a Sunday. Best delivery service I've ever had.

Speedsurfer

11 Jul 16 #56

dalecheesy

11 Jul 16 #59

Picking another one up tomorrow for work. Completely silent and I've got an xtar vc4, an iPad and an iPhone plugged in along with a blackberry and it's keeping up with them all. The vc4 is drawing two amps alone.

itlums

12 Jul 16 #60

Technical information is in par with my old and trusted Anker PowerPort 5 charger (40wats; 8 Amp) with DOE Level 6. It gives my S7 a bit more than 1% charge per minute.

There's no info about maximum Amps per port though (for Anker it's 2,4Amp).
Possible reason for such a price drop - Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 not supported (as per Anker).
Nevertheless it is a good price for a quality branded product. If every penny counts - looks like a solid choice. :smiley:

my wife has just picked one up for me but is saying that the 2 pin plug that goes into block is really loose and you just touch it and it stops charging . Has anyone else had this problem , many thanks

Mine was really tight. Try shoving it in harder. This has gone a bit carry on :smiley:

unfortunately of the 2 I ordered was a returned unit, but the other is charging a phone, tablet, and 3 bike lights quite happily.

Can you believe it, the **** has failed after 4 months and not long after I posted the comment above.
Tempting fate or what?
Anker for me from now on :disappointed:

Broke after 6 days. Not charging and blue light not on. Off to argos tomorrow.

18 Jul 16 #70

Maybe I was on to something with my reference to the Philips one looking exactly the same as my Icefox one earlier up the thread.
What you've described is exactly the fault with mine, no blue light and not charging at all.
