If you’re anything like me, then you travel with all your gadgets. Have you ever been away from home and discovered that your electronic devices just weren’t getting enough power? You check-in to your hotel and as you’re unpacking you notice there aren’t enough outlets to charge your phones, iPad, Kindle, iPod, computer AND portable speakers all at one time. Suddenly you panic from Nomophobia (fear of losing smartphone power).
If you’re a gadget junkie (and who isn’t these days?) and carry around a surfeit of electronics this tends to be a problem and it hinders your social media activity, too. And let’s not forget all the plugs which can be cumbersome and are constantly getting tangled in your bags. The Squire’s found a fantastic product called “mycharge” and it’s part of the RAZOR series of portable chargers that helps alleviate all these problems.
Encased in sleek anodized aluminum, the RAZOR line of portable chargers delivers specified power capacities with the smallest possible footprint making them easy to carry and even easier to use.
Launched this year, the RAZOR Mini is ultra-thin, weighs less than 2 ounces and retails for $29.99. Small, but powerful (1650mAh) it can top-off your smartphone or fully charge it. Also new but at the opposite extreme, is the RAZOR Ultra which packs 12000 mAh of power. The RAZOR Ultra is designed with 2 USB ports, includes a 2.1A adaptor and retails for $99.99. We tried this one and must say that we were able to use our computer with the RAZOR Ultra to charge three devices at once, which was one of the best features of the device.
Jim Dara, the President of myCharge says “The Razor Ultra is our largest power bank ever and can allow even the most demanding power user to take his or her mobile devices off the grid for days.”
The RAZOR Series also includes the existing 3000mAh RAZOR Plus (retail $39.99) and the 6000mAh RAZOR Max (retail $59.99) models which deliver 2.1A and 2.4A of power respectively.
One of the great advantages of the RAZOR series is the Hyper-Charge that charges smartphones up to 30% faster. This includes the iPhone 6 Plus. Faster charging is definitely a benefit of the device.
All of us can now globetrot all over the world worry free with the myCharge RAZOR as it can help keep us connected no matter where we land or what hotel we’re in. And no more panic from Nomophobia!
