Check here for more detailed testing information-Powers my Bose Radio, Celestron 11” Telescope and fast charges my iPad
Update: 24 Feb 16. I have multiple packs in use (5 packs). The packs are all made of Samsung ICR18650 cells that are rated at 2600 or 2700 mah. In reality they are being advertised at a higher rating than they really are. The 3ah pack is actually a 2700mah pack, the 6 AH pack is actually a 5400 mah pack and the 9 AH pack is actually a 8300mah pack (which easily powers my Celestron CGM DX telescope all night for astrophotography). I see there are multiple questions about charging these packs- you have to use the 12.6 volt AC adapter that comes with it or have another 12.6 volt regulated power supply to keep from over charging them and damaging the battery pack. You can’t just plug them into the cigarette lighter of your car.The display LEDs do a pretty accurate job of displaying the voltage of the pack. All LEDs lit- 12 to 12.6 volts, 3 LEDs lit- 11-11.9 volts, 2 LEdS lit- 10-10.9 volts and 1 LED lit- less than 10 volts and it time to recharge. Do not over discharge the pack as this shortens the life of the cells.The 5 Volt USB output will fast charge your phone or tablet at up to 2 amps so it’s a great field charger for these devices.Previous review: I have two of these battery packs in use. It Works great to power my Bose Acoustic Wave Radio. It runs my radio all day at work (10.5 hours) at a fairly loud room filling volume and still has 1 green LED left. This pack is way lighter than carrying around a comparable capacity 6AH lead acid battery. I also use it to power my Celestron CPC1100 11inch telescope. It worked great during a recent star party and lasted fine through the 7 hour night time viewing session with two green lights still lit after we were done for the night. I also tested the 5 volt USB output and found that it charges my IPad Air at the full 2 amp fast charge rate and charges my iPhone 6 also at the full fast charge rate. The battery pack and cable weighs 13oz (which is way better than my 8 lb lead acid battery pack). If I should experience anything different I will be sure to update my review.
Suitcase boombox must!
I dig it. Bought it to use in my homemade suitcase boombox with the lepai 2020a+. 2 6.5 inch 3way and 2 3 inch tweeter speakers with crossover. The box rocks. Workin 10 hour days with the actual time the box is on of 7-9 hours i get 2 days + of play time. i also use the 5v usb to keep my phone charged at the same time.
Great step up for a celestron 6SE telescope.
I really like this battery (currently the version w/o the charge capacity status lights)I’m using it instead of the traditional powertank for a celestron 6SE telescope. Just to give a sense of scale, I’m attaching photos of it next to a powertank, resting on the top of the tripod mount, and in the location I intend to velcro it on the support arm. While I’ve been testing it, I’ve just been sticking it on the former position, but it is small enough to velcro, so I will.It charges in about the same amount of time and runs for as long as the powertank, which is not a surprise since they are rated about the same. The size difference, however, makes this a huge improvement when moving a telescope around to remote sites…or even in one’s backyard. Since celestron’s newest scopes are powered by lithium ion batteries in the mount, there should be no issues with making this switch for an external power supply.The only tricky thing is caused by the somewhat awkwardly translated instructions. When charging, the unit should be on. When you are done, turn it off. If you don’t use it for several months, top it off every three or so.
Cheaply made, but works well enough
The power capacity on this is pretty good, and it does a reasonable job. I use it to power a WiFi router w/ an SSD hard drive attached to it via USB, and it’s able to power the router over night with only one battery level LED going out. This is likely to be my go-to battery with additional purchases for similar portable projects. A few concerns though:1) The USB connector is held in place internally with tape, and the actual USB plug is only attached to the voltage converter board with the four soldered USB pins. There’s no physical connection for the USB housing shield or any strain relief. I expect this would break easily if plugged in with too much force or bent around at all. I ended up cutting it out of mine as I don’t want USB for this application, only 12v.2) The unit has to be switched on to charge. There’s no way to charge it without providing power to whatever’s plugged into it.3) The included splitter cable for the power plug (to allow simultaneous charging and use) was a dead short. Fortunately the protection circuitry on everything prevented any damage. I replaced the splitter with another one I made from parts, and it works fine.NOTE ON EDIT: In my original review I stated this lacked a charge controller board as it looked like the battery cells were wired directly to the power jack. On closer examination, I found there is in fact a suitable 3 string Li-Ion management board which was hiding under the cells themselves & wrapped up in tape. I’d taken the battery apart intending to add my own charging board, but it’s already there. With that, I’ll bump this from 3 to 4 stars. Only remaining annoyance is that it needs to be turned on to charge. (Though I remedied that by adding a second power jack & diode wired directly without the switch in the way.
Good capacity but too much RFI noise.
For the my use this battery pack does a reasonable job. I am powering through USB a small electronic device for more than a week with one charge.

Works great for portable Raspberry Pi + small LCD display setup.
Wish it worked
I have tried every which way to charge this battery pack to no avail. I have the switch on “I” and let it charge for 5 days, and still didn’t charge at all.

Work great Charges what I need fast.
Great battery back.
comments powered by DisqusI’ve had for a while now. The instructions suck. I seem to have to turn it on to charge it. I don’t know… it is strange. It also takes a long time to charge (like a day).
