Poweradd Pilot 5G 10000mAh Portable Charger External 3.8V Battery Pack with ID Identification Technology Review

The Poweradd Pilot 5G 10000mAh Portable Charger External 3.8V Battery Pack with ID Identification Technology arrived in a cardboard box wrapped with a thin white cardboard cover around it with a picture of the charger on the front and the specs on the back.
In the box was the charger, USB Mini charging cable and manual. The charging cable is really short (maybe 2 inches) but works if you have this next to your device. Could be a little longer so you could use your device while it’s charging, but most people have their own cord they could use if needed. The cord is also a mini plug so if you have an Apple device, you will need to supply your own charging cable.

The charger is really small and fits in your hand and is a little smaller than a credit card and almost all other 10,000 mAh power banks. Very compact and portable at 5.1 inches long and just over 4 inches wide.

When I first pulled the charger out of the box, I was surprised at how heavy, sturdy and nicely built it felt. The outer casing is made of metal with a golden finish. Feels and looks very nice. On the one end is where the USB plugs, mini plug and on/off button are located.

There is also a 4 dot battery meter on top of the USB mini port that shows you the amount of charge is left in the power pack. Will be a full 4 dots when fully charged.

The instructions are easy to read, complete and come in multiple languages. This doesn’t really need a lot of instructions as you plug the mini plug end into the charger and the USB end into a PC or outlet if you have an adapter and charge the charger until it’s fully charged (about 5-6 hours). You are better off plugging this into a wall charger to charge this or any battery pack. They hold so much juice and feel like they take forever to recharge.

Once charged, you plug the USB end into one of the USB ports on the battery pack and the mini plug end into your tablet, phone or whatever you need to a charger. Then turn the charger on with the on/off button and it will find the best charging speed for your device (up to 3.4A per port) and charge it at the fastest speed and amps your device can charge at. The charger will adjust its power based on what it is charging, so it won’t overcharge anything. One of the fastest chargers I have seen. Charges my SG6 in an hour.

Once done and you unplug your device, the charger will turn itself off, which is nice and throw it back in your pocket for next time.

Remember this is a 10000mAh charger and you will normally get about 2-4 full charges out of it on most cell phones and even less for an iPad or other devices before it needs to be charged again. There aren’t many bigger ones out there than this one. This will charge two devices at the same time in a reasonable amount of time as well.

I would recommend this to family and friends for anyone looking for a really nice, easy to use, well-built, compact charger.
