Stacey Solomon has shared her go-to camping power bank to keep all of her family's devices topped up. The Charmast 20000mAh Power Bank is ideal for festivals and camping trips, ensuring your phone never dies at a crucial moment.
Stacey's Top Pick for Portable Charging
For those heading to a festival or on a camping trip this summer, one of the greatest challenges can be keeping mobile phones sufficiently charged. Few things are more frustrating than a phone dying while trying to film a favourite act or when needing to keep tabs on family members when finding a plug socket is simply not an option.
Stacey Solomon, however, appears to have discovered the ideal solution, singing the praises of a new portable phone charger during a recent camping trip with her family. She lauded the Charmast 20000mAh Power Bank for keeping not only her own phone topped up, but those of her entire family throughout each day — and it is currently available at a reduced price as part of an early Prime Day deal.
While the lilac version that Stacey opted for remains at its full price of £32.99, several other colour options have been reduced, ranging from £24.69 to £25.99, making it a budget-friendly purchase. Stacey took to Instagram to champion the Charmast Power Bank, stating: "Sharing a link to this because I've bought a million chargers in my time and this one beats them all. I've charged everything on this in the last 24 hours and it's still going strong!"
Features and Benefits
The Charmast Power Bank features four integrated cables that clip neatly to the back, allowing you to charge all makes and models of phones and tablets — and even several devices simultaneously. Supporting 20W PD ultra-fast charging, the Type-C in/out cables and lightning out cable deliver high-speed charging, ensuring your device is topped up and ready to go in no time.
Compact and lightweight enough to slip into a bag or back pocket, it can be taken anywhere, and its digital display keeps the user informed of exactly how much charge remains. However, the Charmast Power Bank is not the only option worth considering ahead of your next trip, reports the Mirror.
Alternative Options
At Burga, the Magnetic Power Bank is available in 5,000, 10,000 and 15,000 mAh capacities, with a variety of slogan designs and colour options to choose from. A mirrored version is also available, and as well as cable charging, it magnetically attaches directly to the back of your phone for convenient hands-free power.
For those seeking a more budget-friendly choice, the Unio Magsafe Power Bank is available at just £12 from Dunelm, offering a 5,000mAh capacity. This is sufficient to provide up to two full smartphone charges, making it ideal for those long days out.
Customer Reviews
Stacey's Charmast Power Bank has proved enormously popular with Amazon customers. One said: "I can't get enough of this power bank, it's fantastic. It charges my iPhone extremely rapidly, far better than my previous battery pack, and has built in cables, saving me from needing to take extra cables. And the sky blue colour is gorgeous!"
Another wrote: "Used this whilst camping at a rowing competition. The bank takes a while to charge itself but was great and fast to charge my iPhone whilst away, lasted for days. I am very happy, it's such a great price. Enough different cables attached to charge everything."
With a third adding: "This is simply the best - fast charging, great size. The downside is it's too heavy to pack in my handbag - but it's awesome. I can charge my phone up three times from this, and it charges so fast. It does take several hours to recharge this power bank though but that's understandable. Probably my best powerbank (out of 7!)."
Potential Drawbacks
Yet the lengthy charging duration of the power bank proved problematic for some, with one less satisfied customer writing: "Can't fault this when using to charge my iPhone or any device, however if this is something you'd plan to use every day you may wanna look for a different power bank as this literally takes FOREVER to recharge. Even when I charge the power bank over night it still isn't fully charged by the morning. It's a shame to be honest because it does charge devices quickly just not so great at actually charging itself."
Someone else agreed: "Does the job, I really like that you can charge multiple devices at once. However, it takes forever to charge this up, and I do mean hours. Makes it impractical. You need to be able to quickly recharge your power bank and go again. Quite heavy."
