Great for portability charger

I got this product portable external battery for my mom since she replaced her old Nokia with an iPhone 4s.

Of course battery life differs drastically between those models. As a result the phone would run out of juice most of the time.

Power Bank Pros:

-Compact in size. (

-Sturdy aluminum body. (Always a good thing inside a purse)

-Bright silver color. (Easier to locate in a purse)

-Charges in less than 2 hours using a USB wall charger.

-Fully charged the phone twice on a single charge with juice left.

-Handy accessories pouch and cable included. ( mini & micro USB + iPhone plug)

-Auto cut off feature if not in use.

Now we no longer worry about my mom's phone running out of charge in case of emergencies.I recharged the Astro from my computer USB port. It took ~ 6 hours to fully recharge (charging light turned off). It might charge a little faster with a plug-in charger, but you should plan on 6 hours (or overnight) to fully recharge.

This is a very good product external battery charger and serves a vital need to those who need to charge their device when away from a plug. The only thing that I initially missed in the directions was that you must press the button next to the USB slots before it will start charging.
