Extra battery power is almost a must nowadays. So much more is accessible on tablets and phones but the batteries on most phones don't have enough juice to make it to the end of the day.
Both of these Power Banks fix that problem, it's just a matter of how much extra power you want to bring with you. I am reviewing both of these because they operate the same in every way except that one is twice as powerful and twice as large as the other.
Both units have a simple interface that tells you how "charged up" it is. Zero lights = no charge, one light = 25% charged on up to 4 lights = fully charged.

The Z-12000, the larger of the two chargers (it is about the size of a battery for a small laptop), can recharge your cell phone 8 times (!) before it is emptied. We use this on vacations. It is too big to carry around in your pocket but if you travel with a backpack you can easily carry the Z-12000 around with you.
These are both powerful chargers - they carry a lot of power and can take up to 12 hours to completely charge. If you are using these on a trip, make sure you plug these guys in as soon as you get back to your room.
Both chargers come with a three-headed USB cord. One is for the older style iPhone plug, one for the new iPhone plug and one is a mini-USB like androids and kindles use. There are two USB ports on each Power Bank. One for iPhones and tablets, one for androids.
Both chargers are sharp-looking but if you are like me you value actual battery power over how good it looks. These are the real deal.
I rate these Power Banks 5 stars out of 5.
