hopefully its worth it please let us know what its like ei if it charges more than 50%

Might be worth grabbing a fistful for various USB-powered devices...
A few would charge a phone at a fraction of the price of a bigger charger - heat :smiley:

Could you please test something with it?

Will it still charge the phone with a power supply attached to it charging the battery.

An expensive one I have stops charging the phone when the mains supply is attached to the input of the battery.

Thanks

That's a shame.

The reason for me asking if that I have a car webcam thingy that is wired to the car when the car ignition is on.
When the car is parked it has a security mode which takes a picture every 30 seconds, but needs power to do this.
I don't want to power it from the battery 24/7 so would like a small battery store like the one the op has posted, but it needs to provide power when it is charging as well as when it is not.

Shame.

​i know it's a hassle but why not just use the power pack when parked up

It's all hard wired, I don;t want to switch things ot changes cables really.

hot. I have an 8000mah I got from amazon for 8 quid so this is good value. if the efficiency rate is say 80% then this probably has around 1000 juice, which should charge your phone up almost 50%

If it's the same as the one from poundworld I bought several months ago then don't expect much although no one should seeing it's just a quid.

I found it charged my phone about 10% more or less. Okay if you are desperate to give your phone enough charge to make a call.

This will only just charge a phone as long as the phone was not in use the whole time it was charging - from a low battery percentage this is regarding. Can't complain for £1, but if you want something to do the job a handful of times over then go get like a 10,000mAH one.

​The Xiaomi powerbank (the 10000mah one) will charge something whilst being charged itself. Got mine for about £8 from gearbest or one of those Chinese sites, it's ace, charges my phone & tablets as fast as a wall usb charger.

​Xiaomi battery for about a tenner supports this, I haven't tried it but it says that on the specs.

EDIT - Beat to it! :smile:

Many thanks for this. I've been looking but they have so many and can't see mention of charging as being charged.

:disappointed:

​This is the one I have. It definitely charges as it's being charged.

Tested one of these from Poundworld:

Cell inside actually ~800mAh
Charged my iPhone 5S to 40% from flat
Max current (from specs): 0.7 A in, 0.8 A out

Still quite impressive for a pound though.

great!! cheers!!

lets hope they are better than the Samsung Note 7in Fire tests. LOL

If its good as the poundworld powerbank it should be a bargain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0c9hI5bt5g

£1 power bank from £land..... Smoking hot, or they will be after they've been on charge over night. Not for me and certainly not for kids.

I must say the included 15cm micro USB cable is worth the price alone.

Very handy.

I've been using these for a few days now and can't fault them so far. Haven't had to charge a phone from lower than 35% but had no issues. Quite convenient not carrying the 8400mAh one around.

mine didn't work :disappointed:

Hadn't seen this deal when posted but just bought one from my local Poundland. It's small and weighs very little so looked ideal to carry around as an emergency power-top up.

Just bought a couple of these today from our local Poundland

So far so good

Tried mine the other day - recharged my Bluboo Xfire 2 battery from 27% to 68%. Excellent little gadget for a quid.
