Think about everything you likely carry with you in a days time if you are out and about- it likely involves one or more devices that you have to charge such as your phone or tablet…and when you travel you are likely having to not only carry your devices and cords to perhaps try to charge on the go, but you are likely carrying other devices and cords that belong to other family members!
I know that our car has a built in usb hub that you can charge things on if you have the cord with you- but first of all you have to have the cord which I sometimes do and sometimes don’t- but it doesn’t do a great job at charging either- I am talking you might get a few percent but that’s about all…and like i say that is IF you happen to have a cord stuck in the car or remembered to grab it on your way out the door. That is kind of the way it is with most chargers. We have had the ones that go to the cigarette lighter and all that kind of thing but they are still inconvenient! Oh and how if you only took a quick trip down the road and your phone is still near death?
When I found out about Mycharge – {they have a ton of different options for chargers}and their HUB line of products I was SO excited because first of all it has the cords BUILT IN. You have not only an apple one but a micro usb and even a usb so if you do need to plug in a random cord you have the option to do so! Oh and then you can just stick it down in your purse or whatever if you need to keep on charging something! To recharge the charging device you can plug it into the wall, and that way if you still need to charge devices you can do it all at one time!
I received the MyCharge HubMax a couple of days before Thanksgiving and I was SO glad because I hate trying to remember cords when I am packing, and when I am at my grandma’s their house was built back in the 70’s and trying to find a plugin is a pain and usually we are the last to get there so it is even harder to find even in regards to a power strip. Also , our phones tend to roam a lot when we are there so it sucks that battery life down all the more! The hubmax came pre-charged and it is 10050mAh which is pretty impressive as well!
We have pretty well adapted to all apple devices (I know isn’t that crazy, I am such an android gal) but I do still have my kindle and my tablet that would work with the micro usb -though this time around I didn’t take either of those, so I still had to carry ONE apple cord with us that we used for the ipad because it is a pro and it is VERY draining and not quick to charge except with its own cord for some reason!
With that being said we were actually at one point charging my phone on the hubmax while david was charging his on the regular charger and we were watching tv on the ipad before bed. My phone charged a TON faster than his and we ended up putting his on there when mine finished!
Here are some awesome “tech specs” about why the mycharge devices are so quick to charge and so awesome!
-Hyper Charge- charges up to 30% faster than the charger that came with it. They specifically mention the iphone 6 plus which is what David and I have and we experienced this first hand!
-Rapid recharge technology -this recharges the actual power bank faster for you
-power stay technology- this can keep the device charged up to 60% for up to a year
-parallel charging – where you can charge the device and the charger at the same time
- Safe Cell™ Technology delivers 12 layers of battery and device protection against over-charge, under-charge, over-current, over-temperature and short circuit.
- Max Power transfer moves power from the powerbank at the fastest speeds possible to the device being charged.
- SmartSense™ Technology ensures device compatibility eliminating those annoying “not compatible” messages as seen from many chargers in the market.
I know that I am loving my Mycharge Hubmax! I love the convenience, the speed of the charge – being able to charge more than one item at a time,etc and I would highly recommend it to anyone who carries electronic items whether you are just going out and about or if you are going on a trip. Another awesome thing is if you use the code STOCKINGSTUFFER in December you can save 30% and there are several options that you can choose from!
