read original related products more articles

A good power bank is essential. Between my phone, headphones, tablet, and smartwatch, I feel like I always have one device or another begging me to plug it in. I actually carry around a power bank with me everywhere due to my chaotic, spontaneous lifestyle and refusal to charge my devices when they aren't actively dying. I purchased my favorite from our extensive list of the Best Power Banks, which features hand-tested picks from my fellow WIRED Reviews gadget experts. Several of their (and my) top picks are on sale right now.

This is the best-looking power bank we've tried, and the price comes within $10 of the lowest we've tracked. The transparent housing and triangle shape are cool, but the battery also performs well, with a 24,000-mAh capacity, a maximum output of 170 watts, and even a little bit of water resistance. There's a display that'll show you battery life, time remaining until a full charge, and the input or output in watts. The battery itself charges up in a little under an hour, provided you have the right cable and charger, and it can top off three devices simultaneously.
