    Not a hope of getting that, there is only one available at that price

    LINK... last deal on the right

    Not sure how customs would deal with that,would have though once you have sufficient proof of purchase price it should be ok

    A month? Mine was shipped from Netherlands (supposedly). Was yours?

    A month from NL seems.... impossible.

    The batteries are sent from Holland but the "lights" are sent from Malaysia.

    It'll be very tight.

    A month is crazy, Average is between 2 and 3 weeks from China.

    For €34.38 delivered you could get 2 of these from France. It's an excellent charger and would definitely get here before EP.
    They charge two at a time.
    That works out at €17.19 each.

    Aww balls. I've them ordered now. I have a veho pebble XT pro but its not holding its charge as well as it once did. I'm sure it'll do me for the few days if these don't arrive tho....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,207 ✭✭✭maximoose


    If ordering from Banggood now for Picnic you're better off using Parcel Motel, it'll get here faster.

    I think it requires an account, and it should work.
    Also, if you do it on the phone app, it brings it down to €9.97.

    I just registered and I could use it then.

    The Anker E5 or the smaller E3. I've the E5 and it does about 5-6 charges of my HTC M8. Use it to charge everything, camera included.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,191 ✭✭✭Stallingrad


    Just got mine, very nice piece of kit. Charged it up in a few hours. Chinese only instructions so not to sure what the on-off procedure is, any ideas?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,655 ✭✭✭El Inho


    Ordered two on the 11th August and they both landed today.

    Happy enough with them. Have it charging there now and will be testing out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


    Received this morning, heavy little thing. Will try it out when back from work.

    There is a Chinese shop or two on Talbot St that has powerbanks from €10 - €25


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 150 ✭✭spuddy01


    Also got my one this morning with a few led lights to go with it. It's quite a solid bit of kit took a few hours to fully charge. Will try it out on my phone overnight and see how it goes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,507 ✭✭✭Carroller


    Can anyone give me a run down on how to turn on/off? Light always seem to stay on

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


    Mine doesn't seem to be the 10000 mah it says it is. More like 6000. Couldn't fully charge my tablet with it which is 8400mah.

    Power is lost as heat and conversion. None of them are 10,000 mAh. Your device is working properly and is actually the 10k version.

    I understand that, but to lose over 40% as heat? Seems a tad high does it not?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,702 ✭✭✭flutered


    i got me a kodak branded one, 2000 mah, at a local filling station 10 euro, it took roughly four hours to charge, it half charged my htc hd2 t885, it got hot after 20 minutes, the fone is faulty and cannot hold charge for long, but connecting this yoke twice a day keeps me going

    alrighty then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,381 ✭✭✭✭Allyall


    Silver version (10000mAh) down to €10.94 with 10% off if you use the app for the first time - which brings it to €9.85.
    Allegedly you can create a new account with the app and that will work. But I haven't tried it.

    http://www.banggood.com/Original-XIAOMI-5_1V-2_1A-10000mAh-Power-Bank-For-Smartphone-p-977406.html


    Red and Gold versions are down to €13.68. I think that's the cheapest I've seen them.

    Silicone protection down to €1.04

    Maybe give them a bit more than 9 days. It'll be 3 weeks anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


    That's july, not august.

    I'd contact them. That's nearly 6 weeks. They'll probably fast track one from their UK warehouse.

    I dropped one of mine off the bed.
    If the silicone case protects at all, it's worth getting. That one doesn't hold a charge now.. :o
    Easy come...

    But I'll definitely get a case now for the other.

    Dropped mine countless times, bar scuffs it's performing adequately


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,381 ✭✭✭✭Allyall

    I only have had the chance to try and charge it once since it dropped. Charged it overnight and it never went above one light.
    It may be just the way it landed.

    Ordered from the site whose name we dare not mention on August 27 and it arrived yesterday. Just under two weeks.

    I don't know what site this is. :confused: ha


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,876 ✭✭✭budgemook


    10400 and 16000 going a bit cheaper than usual on aliexpress today only.

    10400 is $16.99 down from $23.93, 16000 is $25.99 down from $34.65.

    I'd probably get one from Amazon myself though as it will arrive much quicker, has good returns policy and the price difference isn't that much.

    A question though for people who have these for a long time now. How long do they last? Say you used it for one tablet charge a week, when would the power bank need to be replaced?
